Comparison of E-Books with Print
WHY
READ E-TEXTS AND E-BOOKS ?
Things are changing fast when it
comes to media. Obviously, newspapers and magazines are
affected by the expansion of the Internet.
TV and Radio where quick to join rather than fight the
computer
presense. Books are certainly joining the explosion and we
should be using and purchasing these for libary expansion. We
don't always keep every book or article we read. We add the knowledge to our repertoire and
move on to the next book.
Here are some experts opinions as
to why E-Books are an improved resource.
Save Money on BooksThe #1 reason to take advantage
of e-texts and e-books is the money you save on free or reduced-price
books!
* If you're a student, many of the classics of literature you have to
read in school are available for free on the Internet.
*If you're in business, many of the reference books you want are
available either for free, or at a reduced price on the Internet.
* If you're an avid reader, you can choose from hundreds of
thousands of books either for free or at reduced prices on the Internet.
* If you're in a specialized field, many relevant texts can be
issued economically only as an e-book on the Internet. On-line ArchivesThere
are many on-line archives of e-texts and e-books set up by
universities, non-profit organizations, associations, private
companies, and others. The archives are easy
to search and the texts are simple to load to your computer. E-books
are available in various formats, which you will see on many of the
sites listed below. The main three formats that you will see
on
pretty much all these sites are:
* PDF - This is the format you can read with the free Adobe Acrobat
E-book.
* LIT - This is the format you can read with the free Microsoft E-book
Reader. You may want to install in later on your
own.
While
PDF is the top e-book format, the Microsoft format is growing in
popularity. And their reader offers the Text-To-Speech
software.
* EXE - This format is what is called a stand-alone e-book.
It
means that your don't need a specific reader to read the
book.
These e-books
are made with a
program that creates a frame around the
electronic text that provides the basic browsing
keys needed to move
through the pages and to search for specific
words.
