Lunch 'n Learn presentation: When e-books began to appear in the early 2000’s, there was speculation about the demise of the printed book. While that clearly did not come to pass, e-books did become a staple of the reference holdings of many libraries. Since then, both the library and consumer markets have matured, and despite all predictions and speculations, at Princeton University Library, print books and e-books have continued to co-exist quite nicely. Princeton University Press feels that this is the time to step into electronic publishing in a significant way. Therefore, they’ve embarked on a digital publishing initiative to make a substantial amount of their print content available in a variety of electronic formats for distribution into the library and consumer markets. This panel will present both the library and publisher perspectives: Princeton University Library’s selection process for e-books, and the usage patterns at the University that reveal what readers in an academic environment like and don’t like about e-books; and Princeton University Press’s rationale for making certain content available to both the library and consumer markets, including a discussion of their recent launch with books for sale on the Amazon Kindle reading device.
