Morgan Discovery Library Catalog

Books, eBooks, journals, articles, videos and much more can be found in our library catalog, Morgan.

  • To get started, go to Morgan, https://lpts.on.worldcat.org/discovery and simply enter keywords, author names or titles in the search box.

  • To filter for eBooks only, simply select "ebook" from the filter options on the left side.

  • Be aware that access to eBooks and articles off-campus will require LPTS Outlook log in credentials (what is used for LPTS email and Canvas). Remote access is only available to current LPTS students, faculty and staff. Alums may access an abbreviated ATLA database, ATLAS for Alums - see Access for Alums

  • It is possible to filter for publication year, author, subject and much more. Additional filters also appear on the left hand side of the Result List.

More about accessing eBooks:

Use Morgan Discovery (library catalog) to access the entire collection of eBooks available.
Use a specific eBook package (listed below) to search for books in distinct disciplines or vendors.

Please note:

  • For broad eBook searches Morgan Discovery (library catalog) is recommended rather than an eBook package! Why? EBook Searches in Morgan allow you to access subscribed or open access titles available in ALL databases at once! LPTS EBooks are purchased in many different platforms, and this is the only way to quickly find them in one search!

  • When accessing eBooks off campus, patrons will be asked to sign in using their LPTS Outlook ID and password (what is used for LPTS email and Canvas). Note: only current LPTS students, faculty and staff can access purchased eBooks off-campus. The "Sign In" link at the top right of the Morgan catalog screen allows you to access your Morgan account (this is used to see what you have checked out, etc.) NOT for access to eBook content.

eBook/database access troubleshooting

Why can't I see the full text?

Why am I not able to see the text of an ebook that is listed as available? I clicked on an ebook link for my class and I was able to log in but when I click on the ebook I can't read the actual text.

NOTE: Remote access is only available for current LPTS faculty, students and staff.

For the current LPTS community, there are a number of reasons you may be encountering access problems. In some cases, only a certain number of people can access an e-book at any one time. If that is the case, you may have to keep trying until someone who is looking at that specific ebook signs out. 
In some instances, it can be a browser issue. Try opening a different browser -- Mozilla Firefox, Edge, Chrome, etc. -- and try again. Mozilla Firefox is recommended by the E. M. White Library. 

If you continue to have access issues, please send an email to library@lpts.edu and include:

1.    title and author of book you are trying to access
2.    browser you are using
3.    any error or access denied messages you are receiving
4.    as much detail as possible

I can't access the full-text at home!

For off-campus access, patrons will be prompted to sign in with their LPTS Outlook credentials (the same used to access LPTS email and Canvas).

  • Can't remember your LPTS Outlook credentials? Contact RFX Support to get your password reset.
  • "Sign In" links (such as the Morgan sign in link) are NOT for remote access.
  • Contact the library Help Desk at library@lpts.edu if you continue to encounter problems.
