Springer ebooks - now downloadable!

Yes, I'm going a little crazy with posts today, but all of these are useful to know.  I have been particularly delighted to see that Springer now lets people download entire books and I've already shown these to a couple of patrons!  3 cheers for Springer, hope others follow their lead,  Mary
Springer is pleased to introduce the 'full book download functionality' on SpringerLink and Springer for R&D in response to the high demand for this feature by our authors, researchers and library customers. This new functionality allows users to download all chapters of a book in one go. In addition to this feature, users can view an eBook on SpringerLink and Springer for R&D through the LookInside, and download the individual chapters as PDF and/ or HTML format. The chapter level and full book PDF is available to subscribed users without restrictions. The LookInside always shows some sample pages to unsubscribed users, and the full chapter to subscribed users.
