The University of Lincoln's eBooks are held on several platforms: BibliU; Ebook Central and VLeBooks.
It is not possible to print a whole eBook. This is because of restrictions imposed by the publishers and by copyright. However, you can usually print a percentage of each eBook.
You can also download some of our eBooks to your own computer or device. It is not usually possible to print from an eBook you have downloaded (e.g. it is not possible to print from BibliU downloads). As BibliU is primarily a mobile platform, we recommend that you use the features on the App for annotating and highlighting the text.
