Synopsis

This book provides advice on best practices for the use and management of e-books. With their explosive sales and widespread availability over the past few years, e-books have definitively proved that they’re here to stay. In this sequel to her best-selling book, No Shelf Required: E-books in libraries, Sue Polanka dives even deeper into the world of digital distribution. Contributors from across the e-book world offer their perspectives on what’s happening now and what to expect in the coming months and years. Included in this invaluable resource are:

  • guidelines for performing traditional library processes such as cataloguing, weeding, archiving, and managing e-book accessibility for users with special needs
  • coverage of topics such as the e-book digital divide and open-access publishing
  • case studies from a range of academic, public, and school libraries, offering first hand accounts of what works, what doesn’t, and why
  • discussions of the emerging model of the electronic-only library and the rich possibilities of enhanced e-books.
Readership: All librarians will want to familiarize themselves with the wealth of advice in this volume on best practices for use and management of e-books.
