What is an eBook? The eBook is a short version of the electronic book. Portable ebook reading devices that are small hand-held computers mimic books. They are the size of a paperback, run on battery power and have a back-lit screen.
They display texts which have been downloaded from a computer, and allow the reader to search for keywords and to add notes and hyperlinks. An ebook can consist of electronic text only or may contain extras such as audio, video, and hyperlinks.
An eBook is a non-editable, reflowable book that is converted to a digital format to be read on any digital device such as computer screens or mobile devices. You can read electronically bestsellers, classics, and reference texts. Just about any subject you would enjoy can now be found on an eBook. |
