OCLC's netLibrary (http://www.oclc.org/netlibrary/) includes a number of chemistry-related ebooks, some of which are listed below. I believe that in our library system, readers can only read two hours of text at a time. According to the netLibrary web site, eBook checkout times are set by a library's netLibrary administrator and are not set by netLibrary specifically.

Subject: [chemweb] Ebooks in chemistry
The list of chemistry titles at eg
http://www.ebooks.com/subjects/88.smm
is looking impressive (although at first glance, so are the prices).
Has anyone bitten the bullet and recommended etexts for student courses etc
(or actually know anyone who has purchased such?)
Mind you, when one looks at the formats available for ebooks
(http://www.ebooks.com/help/tools/readers.smm) you have to wonder whether
it represents a real advance from print.
