ProQuest Ebook Central

Proquest Ebook Central is a platform with which you can access individual e-books licensed by KIM Hohenheim from a wide range of publishers.

Access

From the campus computers, you can read the e-books online without signing in. To download or print parts of the books, you need to sign in. Please log in with your library ID (Shibboleth).

If you want to access an e-book from outside of the campus network, you will need to sign in with your library account log-in information (Shibboleth) for reading online and all other functions.

Please note:
Depending on the title, different numbers of users can access the book at the same time. Most titles are available with a single-user license, meaning that only one user can access it at a time. If you get the message that all licenses are in use, try again later.
When you are done using an e-book, please close it so that others can use it.

Options for use

• Read online (without logging into the campus network)

• Copy short text passages
• Notes and markings in the licensed books
• Creating a bookshelf to quickly access certain titles
