The book ecosystem is radically changing, and libraries must change
with it. This book tackles the controversial discussion about
eBooks and explores librarian-driven solutions and visions for the
future of libraries in the 21st century. The eBook Revolution: A
Primer for Librarians on the Front Lines is exactly what its title
promises: an essential resource for librarians facing the
formidable task of coordinating the library-wide transition to
eBooks and fielding questions from patrons about eBooks on a daily
basis. After an introduction that covers the basics of eBooks and
current eBook technology, the author puts things into perspective,
documenting the changes that have occurred over the past decade.
She also delves into important eBook issues, identifying
librarian-driven solutions and providing glimpses of what libraries
in the near future will likely be like. The book examines
perennially critical issues such as accessibility, resource
sharing, and the digital divide within the context of eBook
technology and provides a clear framework for discussing eBooks,
thereby enabling readers to make informed decisions regarding their
own organizations.
