SAGE knowledge provides access to Ebooks published by Sage and associate publishers.  The University has access to individual titles purchased on the Sage Knowledge platform, not to all the content.

Books are supplied on a Digital Rights Management Free (DRM-Free) basis, so there are no limits on downloading or printing, and there are no limits on how many people can view the ebook at the same time.
