  1. From step iii, must the search be performed in the app to download the book offline? I access the book on my via the SMU library website, which directs me to the vital source app and then the app. Using this method, I do not see any download key. I tried step iii but am not able to locate "SMU LIBRARIES" or the textbook in question on the app.
