Starpath Engineer's Library
— Training courses and reference materials for marine engineers.

This single CD includes elibra ebook editions of 50 volumes of books and self-study courses on all aspects of marine engineering. Access to the products is also available by download. Each book is searchable for word or phrase with our unique Search/Find-all presentation of the context of each find. See also the related product Starpath Engineering Examiner.

Please note that some of these documents may have more recent editions. We offer no guarantee on latest editions, even if available. Our primary source has been working engineers who provided us with the books they found most useful. Some, in fact, are long out of print and difficult to find in paper, let alone in electronic format. If we do make updates to any book or add books to the package, they will be posted at this site and available for download at no extra charge.


The Cd includes electronic images of about 50 volumes like those shown above, consisting of more than 13,600 pages of text — a stack of books about 3 feet tall, weighing 66 lbs!

Update services: If you have purchased the product and you return to this page and note a letter following the book number (ie SE07a) then that signifies the file has been updated and available for download. The new file name will be changed accordingly. A subsequent update would be SE07b, and so on.
