EBL (E-book library) and Ebrary have merged into ProQuest Ebook Central, the ProQuest company platform. More than 35 000 e-book titles from scholarly resources are available for CTU users.  

Thus you can enjoy the comfort of using e-books from both collections at the same time. E-loans are purchased from the CTU Library budget, provided to CTU users for free.

If you have a user account in Ebrary or EBL, it has already been transferred into a new platform.
