Update: ePubs and Proquest ebooks

ProQuest Ebook Central
Article Date
May 8, 2025

As you may have seen, our ebook provider ProQuest Central recently made a change to their ebook platform. This means that your ebook may display differently. The new format is called an ePub. Most ebooks will be available as an ePub and a PDF, but not all. If your course has links to readings, they may no longer match up. 

If you have certain pages to read, we recommend switching back to the PDF format (if available) for easier navigation. 

Please see the attached PDF for instructions on how to revert to the original ebook format. 


Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you need any help.
Ngā mihi,
The Library Team
