- The Elusive E-book
(source: American Libraries, ALA, mai 2008 / sur abonnement)
The article looks at the impact of electronic books (e-books) on libraries. E-books come in two types: computer-based and portable. The computer-based use a fixed or semimobile device such as a laptop computer. Portables use either a dedicated reader like the Sony Reader and Amazon Kindle or a mobile device for which reading books is a secondary function. The potential of e-books is enormous, the article notes. However, due to ergonomic difficulties, libraries' fixed computers will never adequately host e-books.
