This information is not passed on to the learners, I just received my Comps Exam and was instructed to go to the local library. This I find very time consuming when it is easier to locate a ebook on the Webnar.

Willie, I’m sorry to hear that you were directed to your local library. Perhaps that suggestion was offered as a way for you to find additional materials. As a Capella learner you are certainly welcome to use the Capella Library any time, and as our Comprehensives Exam guide says, you are allowed to contact Capella librarians to get assistance with searching for specific materials. Please contact the library if you need assistance.
