Title
E-Book Technology in Libraries: An Overview
Abstract
The shift towards electronically mediated texts entails major structural issues for libraries and the publishers and aggregators who supply them. Stakeholders within the digital supply chain are struggling to re-conceptualise the book as artefact (Esposito 2003). Academic and scholarly libraries are at the forefront of these changes and many are preparing for a significant shift from physical to electronic material presentation within the next few year. Within this context, we review some recent developments in the technology underpinning e-books, evaluate a number of e-business publishing models and introduce some of the key players.
