#Download ebook install
You will need to download an app (such as Bluefire Reader) or install Adobe Digital Editions to read ebooks offline. EBL, Ebrary, and EBSCO all use Adobe DRM to protect their ebooks and will only let you keep the book for a set period of time, usually 1-14 days. (Elsevier only allows a chapter at a time). Springer and Elsevier both allow you to download the ebooks as DRM-free PDFs that you can read on any device. It is important to understand that, depending on the collection, there may be restrictions on downloading the ebooks. These include Springer eBooks, Elsevier eBooks, EBL eBooks, and Ebrary eBooks. We also have several collections provided through VIVA that focus solely on STEM areas (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). The RBC Library has over 70,000 ebooks in our collection! The vast majority (over 60,000) are available through the EBSCO eBook Collection, which covers all subject areas.
