Contact Cinema Studies Librarian Kate Johnson katej.johnson@utoronto.ca to help you navigate these types of requests. 

• Search the Library Website and limit your search results to Online 
• These database platforms contain eBooks: 
  • EBSCO (Interdisciplinary)
  • JSTOR (Interdisciplinary)
  • Project Muse (Interdisciplinary) 
  • ProQuest (Interdisciplinary) 
• Ebook platforms and collections
  • UofT Libraries has licenses with various eBook Vendors. This link takes you to a list of the platforms / collections, but they don't have great search options so it's better to use if you know the book's title and the publisher. 
  • Sometimes you will find books that we have access to but they haven't been listed yet in the library collections.
  • Get in touch with the Cinema Studies Liaison or UofT Libraries Ask a Librarian if you have any questions.
