The leads to the Library Catalog, which is the index for all the books in the library and all the licensed ebooks available to KU students.
When using the Books, Ebooks and Media interface, remember:
to sign in -- only people with KU credentials can open Ebooks,
the interface will not correct spelling errors, so if you get "no results" check your spelling,
if you have technical difficulties use CHAT -- leave a message if no one is available.
This interface relies heavily on a controlled vocabulary scheme, so it is very dependent on using the right vocabulary for a subject. Examples of subject terms you might consider:
Video games
Video game Industry
Transmedia storytelling
Critical game studies
[Name] fictional character - for example Spiderman (fictional character)
[Name] frnachies - for example, Resident Evil franchise
When you find a title that works, look for the Subjects that were assigned to it.
