Good news all Cambridge High School students, we have E Books. We are in a trialling phase for now, but those of you with E Readers, Ipods, IPhones, Notebooks, Kobos, Sony E-Readers, Laptops and desktops can now access E Books.

How:

Go to the Wheelers link on the top bar of the blog site. This will take you automatically to our Wheelers EPlatform. Or you can search for E Book on the Oliver OPAC site.
Look at the books you may want to read- at the moment we have oldies but goodies while we are testing this all out- but very soon- the hot titles will be rolling in.
All you need to do is Download them onto your device- there is lots of information about how this is done, but I have taken some here from the Wheelers site to help you.

Some compatible devices and the application (free software) you need to download to get started:



  • Desktop or Laptop (PC or Mac) you will need Adobe Digital Editions.
  • iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (requires iOS 3.0 or higher) we recommend Bluefire Reader (free). .
  • Kobo eReader will need Adobe Digital Editions. For a step by step guide to setting up your eReader
  • Sony eReader (with wifi) will be set up and ready to use. If you don't have Wifi enabled you will need or Adobe Digital Editions. For a step by step guide to setting up your eReader
  • MiGear eReader comes set up for reading encrypted eBooks. If you are unsure if your model is compatible

I love stories like this for our students! Check out her Facebook page- it is inspirational; https://www.facebook.com/ChloeAdventurer/ The real-life adventures of a young woman pushing the limits, trusting her instincts and living her life off the beaten path Suffering through searing pain and delirious illness in frigid, makeshift conditions, Chloe Phillips-Harris, at the age of 25 years, summoned every ounce of determination to brave the world's most gruelling horse race - the Mongol Derby.

Fearless  recounts Chloe's childhood g...

Saine Sinclair knows a little something about what makes a story worth telling. Your childhood best friend refuses to kiss you during a pre-adolescent game of spin the bottle? Terrible, zero stars, would not replay that scene again. The same ex-friend becomes your new best friend’s ex? Strangely compelling, unexpected twist, worth a hate-watch. That same guy—why is he always around? —turns out to be your last shot at getting into the documentary filmmaking program of your dreams? Saine hates to admit it, but she’d watch that movie. There’s something about Holden that makes her feel like she’s the one in front of the camera—like he can see every uncomfortable truth she’s buried below the surface. Saine knows how her story’s supposed to go. So why does eve...
