How does eLi, eLibro's AI assistant, work?


  • Go to the eLibro platform. You can access it by entering its name in the Library search tool or the Search by name or keyword field on the Search the digital collection by field page. Log in with your Virtual Campus credentials.
  • You can then search the platform and choose any of the e-books you'll find there. A new page will open with the basic details of the document. Click on the Read online button.
  • A new page will open with an online reader. You'll find the eLi virtual assistant in the toolbar on the right. You can directly type any questions you may have about the book in it. If the eLi icon is green, it means that other users have already asked it questions about this book and you'll be able to read the answers.

  • If you select an excerpt from the book, a toolbar appears with various options. One of them is a robot icon, which identifies eLi. Click on it and you'll be able to ask specific questions about the excerpt.
