An eBook reader is not required and most eBooks can be openly accessed around the clock - you just need internet access. Several users can access the same eBook simultaneously and keep it - there is no "due date" to return the book.

When using LISSS and you find what you're looking for, just click on the link to access the full-text article. You can find licensed eBooks by publishers such as Springer, Wiley, RDB, Elsevier, Duncker & Humblot, WISO eBooks, and many more.
