Heard of a new e-Book and wondering what it’s all about? Are you debating whether or not to spend your time on a new e-Book? Well, look to Download the Universe for some guidance.

Navigating the medical literature is a task in itself, and now with all the e-Books being developed, Download the Universe offers a cyberspace of reputable e-Book reviews. The idea began when a group of writers and scientists gathered at a meeting called Science Online. They saw a gap in scientific information and trusted, thorough e-Book reviews, so they decided to take on the challenge themselves. It’s important to note that the group only reviews science books that exist in the digital realm.

The resource itself, in a simple to use blog format, is easy to discover and navigate. Each entry clearly states the e-Book it is talking about with superb writing and an archives section for past reviews. It’s also possible to search the resource by category using the links on the left sidebar. The editors are also listed on the left, and each name links out to an author webpage, making it easy to determine the credentials on a reviewer. You can also contact the resource editors for suggestions or questions about a review.

The Library’s e-Books and e-Journals can be found by searching the “Title Search” tab of the Library homepage, or our online catalog, Tri-Cat.
