Introducing.........

............a great online resource for research. While OverDrive is great for fiction titles, very few nonfiction materials are available. We've set up a resource with nonfiction eBooks. It's called VIA. Books can be viewed by multiple students at the same time. We're adding to the collection now. The details:
  • Where is it? http://mackinvia.com - There's a link to it on the DHS Student Start Page.
  • What's my username and password? There is a single username and password for all DHS students and staff to use. We can't post it here. Ask in the Media Center, and we'll give it to you.
  • How do I check out eBooks on VIA? You don't need to check them out. Just log in to view them.
