Finding E-books: A Guide

This is an important issue for all library users but we must pay particularly attention to this with print / visual impairment issues.

Finding E-books: A Guide (Library of Congress, USA)

 
Finding E-books: A Guide, created by J. Cheyenne Hohman, University of Kentucky, is an introduction to e-books: what they are, how to use them, and where to find them, at the Library of Congress and elsewhere online. An e-book (also referred to as an electronic book, ebook or digital book) is a text that can be viewed and/or downloaded onto a computer or other digital device. E-books cover a wide range of genres and subjects. Though many e-books are currently available in both digital and conventional paper formats, some are created strictly in digital format. Conversely, some conventional paper books do not exist in digital format, because of the book’s copyright status, or the preferences of the book’s publisher or author.”
