NetBooks – Read Books Online
Ever wish you had a more efficient and productive way of locating the critical information you need to address the challenges, problems, and tasks you face on a daily basis?

NetBooks meets this need at no cost to you.

What is NetBooks?

NetBooks allows anyone with a web browser to access thousands of online books from major publishers. It provides a searchable and customizable "just-in-time" reference library that can help you enhance your individual productivity.

NetBooks is Verizon's corporate implementation of ReferencewareSM from Books24x7, and is provided to you by Verizon’s Workforce Development and Performance Management organization.

Note: You cannot download or print an entire book. However you are permitted to download or cut and paste any part of the book (i.e., a few pages, a chapter, diagrams, or code samples).
