Religion 200: Required Texts
The library has an ebook version of two of the texts required for this class. You may read Islam by John Kaltner online, download chapters permanently, or print the chapters. If you create an account in JSTOR, you can save this book and other articles to your personal JSTOR Workspace. In your Workspace, you can: save articles, chapters, and even web resources; make notes for articles or chapters; create folders to organize your materials; and create and store citations. This Workspace is private to you, but you may share a work folder with a professor or group for a project.
The library has a 1-user license to the ebook edition of the HarperCollins Study Bible. This book is in EBook Central, and to make sure that everyone gets a chance to use it, do not download the whole book (doing so will mean others cannot see the text). Instead, download individual chapters directly from your browser without downloading or checking out the whole book. Thank you!
