If you would like E-Books
An E-Book is a digital version (CD) of a printed book. These can be read on personal computers (with a screen reader), or on hardware devices known as E-Book readers, or E-Book devices. Students who have difficulty reading printed books can benefit from the adjustment of text size, font face and audio imput. Text-to-speech software can be used to read E-Books to students automatically.
If you are a student at MCC and are interested in ordering E-Books, please follow these steps:
- Make an appointment to be assessed by an MCC Learning Disabilities Specialist:
Gail Hammond - 860-512-3325
Joan Kantor - 860-512-3346
If you cannot reach Gail or Joan, please contact Joseph Navarra at 860-512-3332.
- After the MCC Learning Disabilities Specialist has determined your eligibility for E-Books fill out an E-Book Request Form. You must fill out a separate form for every book you are requesting.
- When you have finished the form click submit at the bottom of the page and it will be sent to be processed.
If you have any questions about E-Books please contact Daryn Kjellquist (860-512-3314) or email at dkjellquist@mcc.commnet.edu.
