About This Book
The author surveys developments in digital publishing between 1998 and 2003, combining chronology, interviews and resource lists to map how the internet transformed authorship, editorial practices, bookselling and libraries. Topics include online dictionaries and text databases, hypermedia works, digital editions in text, braille and audio, reading software and portable devices, early e-book experiments, and initiatives for digitization and multilingual access. The volume examines emerging business and technical services, shifting professional habits, and prospects such as wireless connectivity and electronic paper, and concludes with annexes of directories, commentaries and web resources for further exploration.
