IEEE/IET publications
          go to IEEEXPLORE

Access to over 220 e-books on IEEE Xplore.

Free E-Books Worldwide sales of e-books are expected to jump from US $323 million in 2008 to nearly $9 billion in 2013, according to a forecast by the market research firm In-Stat. Aware of the popularity of digital books, IEEE is now offering members a collection of 220 IEEE e-books for free through the IEEE Xplore digital library.

For more information and to see a selection of these IEEE eBook Classics, visit http://bmsmail3.ieee.org:80/u/16474/128854

The e-book collection spans a number of today's technologies across nineteen different content areas, and includes:

  • practical handbooks,
  • introductory and advanced texts,
  • reference works, and
  • professional books.
