Viewing netLibrary e-books

Question: "Do you know why netlibrary ebooks are not displaying all pages? When I click on a section of a ebook, I can only see the first page of the section. None of the following pages display."

Answer: "netLibrary displays only 1 page at a time. If you want to see the next page of a book, you must click the 'Next >>' button at the top right of the screen, which will load the next pdf page."

This is easier to manage if you have pdfs loading in your browser (i.e., articles or pages display right within Internet Explorer or FireFox), but can be confusing if you have your browser preferences set to open pdfs in a separate application, like Acrobat Reader.

Note that this is also true for books in MyiLibrary.
