Can I download e-books to an e-reader such as a Kindle?

The ability to download e-books to an e-reader depends on the DRM employed by the e-book provider and the file formats that your e-reader is compatible with. Due to the DRM in place, you currently cannot download e-books from Dawsonera, Myilibrary, EBSCOHost or Safari Books Online to any e-reader.

Content from our DRM-free providers can be downloaded to and read on any device compatible with pdf format. This is the only way to read content on a Kindle as we cannot purchase content in the proprietary Kindle format. As well as DRM-free pdfs, Palgrave Connect also offers content in EPUB format (http://idpf.org/epub), which is the preferred format for many e-readers (not Kindle).
