IASL 2013 Ebook presentation
This document discusses linguistic equity in eBook collections available to school libraries worldwide. It analyzes data on the languages represented in collections from major eBook providers like Follett and the International Children's Digital Library. It finds that the vast majority of eBooks are in English, while only a small percentage are available in other languages, despite a large portion of the world's school-aged children speaking other native languages. This creates a linguistic divide and limits opportunities for children to read in their native languages. The document calls for eBook providers and initiatives to do more to address this imbalance and ensure linguistic equity proportional to the worldwide demographics of school-aged children.
