eBooks Minnesota is a free collection of thousands of ebooks spanning both fiction and non-fiction ready for use in adult education classes. Most titles come with unlimited simultaneous and permanent access, eliminating holds, wait times, checkout periods, and due dates. The collection includes a broad range of genres and topics, such as health resources from Mayo Clinic Press, history, Minnesota-focused content, graphic novels, award winners, and diverse titles in languages other than English (LOTE). 

Search the thousands of titles by reading grade level and topic. As an example, a search for 2nd grade reading level autobiographies produced books about the following famous people: Cesar Chavez, George Washington Carver, Neil Armstrong, Sojourner Truth and more. The LOTE collection is small, but here are a few titles of note: The Hen and the Badger (Karen), My First Arabic Phrases (Arabic) and Babaamaadiziwin (Ojibwe). Many books can be downloaded and have audio as well.
