Thank you for your interest in purchasing an eBook from the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM). SCCM’s eBooks are published in EPUB format, which is an industry standard for electronic book files. These files are denoted by the .epub suffix at the end of file names. The eBook can be viewed on any electronic device that can display EPUB files. Once you have downloaded the file from the SCCM store, it is stored on your device.

Click here to download a sample eBook to find out whether your device already has software installed for reading an eBook.

If the sample eBook does not open, your device does not support EPUB files. You will need to download an eBook management tool, such as Calibre, that will allow you to convert EPUB files to other formats. Follow the eBook management tool’s instructions to convert the book’s EPUB file to a format supported by your device. Open your eReader application to access the reformatted file containing your eBook.

The preferred browsers for downloading to non-Apple products are Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. The preferred browser for downloading to Apple products is Safari. 

Once you have purchased an eBook from the SCCM store, select the My SCCM link at the top of the page, and then My Learning. Here you will see the link to download the book. Select the book link and the download starts automatically. 

You can navigate through the eBook using the links in the table of contents or index or by browsing page by page. You can use the bookmark feature to mark pages you often consult. You can also change the text size, font, and page display using the app’s tools. Check the app’s user guide for instructions on customizing your reading experience.
