Abstract

E-books are becoming popular of late because they have several advantages when compared to printed books. E-books provide multimedia information, full-text searching, reference linking, flexibility in searching and browsing, selection of different types of fonts, portability, and interoperability on a variety of devices. E-book reader software allows users to highlight, annotate, underline and bookmark. This paper discusses the role of e-books in academic libraries.
