This document provides an abstract and bibliography for published literature on electronic books (e-books) and related technologies. It discusses how the desire for electronic publications has grown exponentially with computer usage, leading to more materials being published electronically as e-publications. The popularity of e-books as one form of e-publication has been steadily increasing over the past decade. The bibliography collected information on e-books from a variety of published sources and organizes it alphabetically by author within different headings to provide a useful resource for researchers.
The Book Is Back - John Miedema - Thinking Ahead 2008johnmiedema
The document discusses the relationship between print and digital technologies. While many predicted the demise of print in favor of digital, consumption of print materials like books has actually tripled in recent decades. The book persists due to qualities like its ability to be read anywhere without power and its fixity, while e-books have drawbacks like licensing restrictions and being inferior for reading. The relationship between print and digital is seen as complementary rather than a replacement, with each format having advantages depending on the task. Literacy remains a key issue and libraries continue to be important centers for books and information.
The Future of Libraries (for beginners)Jenna Kammer
The document discusses the past, present, and future of libraries. It outlines how libraries have evolved from physical collections to include online resources and digital materials. Some key points about the future of libraries mentioned are that they will have increased online and virtual services, subscriptions to digital materials like ebooks and audiobooks, and technology available for checkout. The needs of changing patron demographics like Generation Y are also addressed, and it is suggested that patrons will ultimately decide the future shape of libraries.
This document discusses e-books, including their history, definitions, advantages, disadvantages, and issues related to collecting and providing access to e-books in libraries. Some key points include:
- E-books are digital versions of books that can be read on computers, e-book readers, phones, or other devices. They offer advantages like searchability but also restrictions like DRM.
- The history of e-books dates back to the 1970s with projects like Project Gutenberg, but they became more widespread in the late 1990s and 2000s as formats and devices proliferated.
- Libraries are increasingly acquiring e-books but face challenges regarding pricing models, licensing, and ensuring long-term access
This document discusses research on the use of eReaders in education. It provides a bibliography of research articles on this topic, covering issues such as how eReaders can motivate less enthusiastic readers, predictions about future electronic devices, and the potential for disposable eReaders capable of displaying video. The bibliography cites 20 research articles investigating eReaders and their impact on areas like emergent literacy, supporting readers with disabilities, and circulation in libraries.
This document discusses the history and present state of e-books in Bangladesh. It notes that e-books were first developed in the 1960s and have grown significantly in popularity. Currently, most primary level textbooks in Bangladesh are available in e-book format via platforms like the Kindle, iPad, and Samsung Galaxy. The document outlines some advantages of e-books like low price, portability, and reduced environmental impact compared to printed books. However, it also mentions some challenges to e-books like potential eye strain and incompatibility between different e-book formats.
1. Humans have expressed themselves through graphic representations like drawings and language for over 30,000 years as evidenced by ancient artwork.
2. Written language evolved through early civilizations using symbols and scripts on buildings and scrolls to record their history. One of the most notable examples was the Great Library of Alexandria in Egypt.
3. The development of the printing press in the 15th century by Johannes Gutenberg allowed books to be mass produced more quickly and affordably, increasing literacy and access to knowledge over time. This helped transition from handwritten texts created by monks.
Attitude And Practices Towards Marginalia An Exploratory StudyAnita Miller
This document summarizes a research study on reader attitudes and practices regarding marginalia (written notes in books). The study explores differences in how readers engage in marginalia for printed texts versus e-books. It aims to identify preferred reading formats, the value readers place on marginalia, and challenges of practicing marginalia digitally. Literature on the history and importance of marginalia is reviewed. Previous studies found most students prefer printed books and lack knowledge of annotation tools for e-books, though digital reading is increasing. This study examines reader needs, behaviors and responses regarding marginalia in e-books to inform developers.
The document discusses the impact of e-readers on libraries and the role of books. It covers topics like publishing moving digital, advantages and challenges of e-books for libraries, opportunities for libraries to expand services through e-books, and the need for librarians to develop skills in new technologies. The presentation calls on librarians to preserve the role of libraries and books by embracing opportunities in e-publishing while addressing challenges like costs and the need for professional development.

Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to highlight and examine public-library-based, online book
clubs for preteens and teens.
Design/methodology/approach – Two online book clubs are discussed. ...
This document discusses how electronic communication technologies have impacted scientific publishing and whether they have lived up to their promises. It examines several promises around electronic publishing, including:
1) The promise of a paperless and wireless society has not been fully realized, as paper publications are still widely used and wireless access is not universally available.
2) While electronic access to scientific information has expanded, not all content is available digitally and concerns remain around digital preservation and future access.
3) Subscription costs have not dropped as much as expected, as libraries still maintain print collections and deal with bundling of content from publishers.
4) Organizing the large amount of available information remains a challenge.

A comprhensive guide to electronic booksAuwalu Diso
The document provides an overview of electronic books (e-books), including their origin, definitions, technologies, advantages, sources, and predictions for the future. Some key points are:
- E-books were first envisioned in science fiction works in the 1940s-1960s and became possible with the development of word processors and the internet in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
- E-books can be digital versions of print books or born-digital content and allow for features like adjustable fonts, bookmarks, and multimedia.
- Advantages over print include unlimited size and titles, portability, cost savings, and environmental friendliness.
- E-books will likely not replace print but
This document summarizes research into digital textbooks. It includes:
- Literature reviews finding students still prefer print textbooks for in-depth reading due to easier concentration, comprehension and annotation. However, digital offers convenience and lower costs.
- User research at universities finding students use laptops, not tablets, and value tangible benefits of print like speed and navigation.
- Expert interviews noting print has emotional value and digital should offer new benefits, not replicate print. Students have complex content workflows.
- The document develops hypotheses around digital textbooks being used as a laptop extension of print textbooks, and increasingly via tablets. It explores features, user flows and designs to support these hypotheses.

This study examined the usage patterns of e-books among undergraduate students in Malaysia. A survey was conducted of 206 undergraduate students majoring in information technology at the University of Malaya. The results found that while students were heavy internet users and comfortable with technology, only 39% reported using e-books. Most students became aware of the e-book collection through the university library website or recommendations from lecturers, friends, or librarians. While 70% had positive views of e-books, both users and non-users generally preferred printed books, especially for continuous reading. The study identified several factors that may influence e-book usage, such as students' digital skills, cognitive preferences, access to e-books, and us
The role of research libraries in a European e-science environmentWouter Schallier
This document discusses the role of research libraries in supporting e-science, which involves large-scale computing, data-intensive research conducted over the internet in collaborative and distributed teams. E-science requires new strategies for research support through integrated infrastructures. Research libraries must reinvent themselves by integrating library services into virtual research environments, supporting data management and preservation, and recruiting content like datasets for repositories. This will allow libraries to remain essential partners in the new information environment of e-science.
The Articles of Confederation promoted liberty but sacrificed stability and security, leading to its downfall. It established a loose confederation that gave too much power to states at the expense of the central government. However, it did promote the general welfare through laws like the Northwest Ordinance, which established public schools and a path to statehood for new territories. Overall, the Articles of Confederation effectively balanced liberty and unity at first but became too decentralized over time.

The role of research libraries in a European e-science environmentWouter Schallier
This document discusses the role of research libraries in supporting e-science, which involves large-scale computing, data-intensive research conducted over the internet in collaborative and distributed teams.

The Articles of Confederation promoted liberty but sacrificed stability and security, leading to its downfall. It established a loose confederation that gave too much power to states at the expense of the central government. However, it did promote the general welfare through laws like the Northwest Ordinance, which established public schools and a path to statehood for new territories. Overall, the Articles of Confederation effectively balanced liberty and unity at first but became too decentralized over time.
