Online vs. Print
Books and journals have long since moved online. The Ascension Wisconsin (AW) Libraries provide materials in both formats. While electronic resources have many advantages, print still has a place.
All of our scholarly journals are online these days. In general, we prefer e-books for the many reasons listed below. However, we might opt for print if the online version is too expensive, or if the item is not available online.
These days, most of our print books are older editions. Newer eBook editions can often be found online through Clinical Key, Access Medicine or R2 Library.
- To find books in our collection (both print and online), search the AW Library Catalog/OPAC.
- For a listing of our online journals and eBooks, go to the A-Z Journals List (Ovid Linksolver).
- For more info about our eBook Collections, Find eBooks.
