Books provide an excellent overview of a topic and are a great resource when starting an assignment.  Refer to any Reading Lists you may have been directed to or use the Library Catalogue to search for topics.

If we don't have a book you're interested in, we may be able to obtain it via Interlibrary Loan Loan.

 

For a look at an ebook package (in this case Ebook Central) in a bit more detail, see this short video.
