UCBooks

The new standard in institutional resource search. A platform for students to trade books and access library content.

With this application, students can trade books and access study resources - Full-Texts, eBooks, Monographs and Journals - from the university library.

Easy to Use

Use your phone to scan the isbn barcode to find a book.

Borrow Library Resources

Affiliates may check availability, locate and reserve full-text library resources.

On & Off-Campus Access to Online Library Material

You can directly read available library ebooks, monographs or journals and save holding information for future access.

Native Reader for Select Online Resources

We also provide a reader for affiliates to directly access select online resources. One may save reading location and even interact with a resource by chapter.

Simple to Track

If you search for a book that you seek, you won’t need to keep checking the app constantly. You will be notified as soon as a student posts it.

Academic Centered

Service access is limited to institutional affiliates via valid institutional identity numbers.
