e-Books - electronic versions of books, including textbooks, that can be read online or downloaded - are growing in popularity because of their low cost relative to paper books. Catherine Roop, a student of Mickey Marsee in English 513, prepared a pamphlet and a PowerPoint presentation about using E-books, and she kindly gave permission for us to post them on our web site. (Thanks, Catherine!)

This material contains information about the different kinds of E-books that are available and some of their advantages and disadvantages.

Although this material was nominally written for English instructors, most of the information it contains is of general interest.
