O’Reilly for Higher Education (OHE) is now available for all UC campuses on O’Reilly’s new platform: http://uclibs.org/PID/432785.
OHE contains close to 48,000 titles of technical eBooks, videos, interactive tutorials, case studies, learning paths and audio books from O’Reilly & Associates, including selective titles from over 200 global publishers including McGraw-Hill, Pearson Technology Group (Addison-Wesley, Alpha, Financial Times Prentice Hall, Cisco Press, New Riders, Peachpit Press, Prentice Hall PTR, Que and Sams), HarperCollins, Pakt Publishers, MIT Sloan Management, ASTD, Apress, Amacom, and other learning providers. The subject coverage ranges from Business, Desktop & Web Applications, Data Science & Management, Digital Media, Engineering, Information Technology & Software Development & Architecture, Math & Science, and Personal & Professional Development going back to 2007.
This database also contains over 30,000 hours of video including presentations from O’Reilly for Higher Education video. Additional information about how to customise results, develop personalised reading lists, engage in note taking, and bookmarking is found on the Proquest LibGuide for OHE at https://proquest.libguides.com/oreilly/, which can be edited for specific campus needs.
The new OHE platform requires users to log in with a personalised account and does not use IP authentication. The campuses have configured authentication to use single-sign on credentials (i.e. Shibboleth or Federated logon), which will establish a personalised account on the new platform while preserving user anonymity.
Currently, the OHE Mobile Application does not support Federated Authentication. Further promotion and support of this mobile app will be at the discretion of the individual campus once the updated application becomes available, in line with campus mobile access support policies. https://cdlib.org/services/collections/licensed/policy/mobile/.
