eBooks at Bethel University

Because of known limitations with DRM-protected content (such as Adobe Digital Editions), it's recommended to download eBook chapters from EBSCO eBooks and Ebook Central, then open the downloaded chapters with a text-to-speech tool or copy the text from the viewer into a text-to-speech tool.
