Abstract:

Adopting a mixed methods approach consisting of interviews, focus group discussions and surveys, this thesis investigates the state of digital publishing in Ghana within the context of Rogers’ diffusion of innovation theory. With a focus on children’s ebooks, it examines publishers’, authors’ and readers’ levels of adoption of ebooks, and their motivations for, perceptions of, and challenges or barriers to, going digital or otherwise. It also assesses the state of digital infrastructure and human resource capacity in Ghana to support the growing ebook sector, and identifies the knowledge and skills deficit in the industry in order to inform the development of courses that will be incorporated into the BA Publishing Studies programme at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST). This thesis reveals that the level of adoption of ebook publishing among publishers and authors was relatively low given the interest demonstrated by young readers. The latter were very interested in ebooks and read mainly foreign content because it was freely available and accessible online. Publishers’ and authors’ motivations for publishing ebooks include visibility, the opportunity to reach a much wider audience, and the novelty of publishing digitally to keep abreast of current trends so as to transform the local industry. Some barriers to adoption identified were the cost associated with acquiring infrastructure, the security of online content, inadequate information about ebooks, non-use of ebooks, and infrastructural challenges such as inconsistent electricity supply and poor Internet penetration. The thesis also identified an awareness disconnect between publishers and their local readers: publishers perceive ebooks to be for the international market and, as such, do not focus on promoting them in the local market; thus, local readers are not aware of the existence of ebooks. Expanding on Rogers’ adoption categories, two new categories were created, incidental adopters and perceptual late adopters, to accommodate individuals who do not fall within Rogers’ established adopter categories. To increase the spread of digital publishing and the uptake of ebooks in the Ghanaian book market, the thesis recommends the elimination of the barriers to adoption and, most importantly, advocates training and skills development to reduce the knowledge and skills deficit gap among publishers and authors.

Abstract:

Today’s society is becoming more digitalised. Moving traditional printing to screen is becoming the new normal. Since the selection of ebooks is becoming larger and larger the publishers and authors must start thinking about their design to have better prerequisites than their competitors. The focus of this study will be an analysation of the best and worst covers of Amazon Kindle ebook cover design. Today, many self-published authors do not want to spend money on an ebook when they can design it by themselves for free and therefore they lose the impact that a good ebook cover have on the selling. The purpose of this study is to deduct which kind of design principles are more desirable, and how these design principles are presented. The study will contribute with knowledge to designers, both professional and unprofessional, what aspects of a book cover is important to consider to effectively compete for the consumers attention in the market. The research objective is to create a guideline for the creation of an ebook cover, which will create a more desirable product and add to the work flow efficiency. The most valuable currency people have today is time and money, and a design guideline will help those areas and make the process as quick and effortless as possible. Consequently, the purpose of this study will show concrete design principles for popular ebook covers which will help the designer to make wise decisions. To be able to fulfil the purpose, it has been phrased into one main question. What design elements are important to take into consideration when designing an ebook cover? To answer the research question eleven different appropriate applicable design principles have been chosen for analysation. Alignment, archetypes, colour, hierarchy, Horror Vacui, legibility, Ockham’s Razor, Picture Superiority Effect, proximity, Rule of Thirds and similarity. The thesis is based on the worldview constructivism. The term worldview meaning “a basic set of beliefs to guide action”. The constructivist worldview implies a belief where people seek understanding in a world where they live and work. They develop subjective meanings of their experiences which can be directed to certain objects. The thesis uses exploratory sequential mixed method, where the researcher begins with a qualitative research phase and explores the views of the participant. Mixed method is chosen based on the assumption that collecting diverse types of data provides a more complete understanding of the research problem than either quantitative or qualitative data alone. In conclusion, an analysation of covers from Amazon kindle have been made together with a guideline to avoid the worst of them. The guideline uses words and visuals to explain and point out important principles to consider when designing an ebook cover. It has a simplistic clear approach and the purpose of designing the guideline this way was to provide understanding to designers and non-designers alike. Since the sampling of ebooks have been broad, expanding over several genres, the guideline can be applied to ebook covers in general. This study contributes to the existing studies by providing insight into how design principles are applied to ebook covers and which principles are most important to take into consideration when designing an ebook cover.

Abstract:

Este trabalho propõe-se a estudar de que modo o projeto de e-books voltados a crianças em fase de alfabetização pode ser aprimorado, de modo a tirar melhor proveito dos recursos tecnológicos e, assim, melhorar a experiência de leitura infantil nesse contexto de ensino-aprendizagem. Para isso, expõe-se, inicialmente, um panorama geral sobre a popularização dos e-books e sobre a leitura em suporte digital. Realiza-se, então, uma pesquisa bibliográfica dividida em três partes principais: a primeira busca identificar características do público-alvo, suas capacidades e limitações no que diz respeito à leitura; a segunda trata do objeto e-book de maneira geral, envolvendo aspectos técnicos e de uso desse objeto digital; a terceira aborda o livro digital infantil, sob o enfoque do projeto gráfico-visual. Posteriormente, é realizada uma análise de similares, em que dez publicações digitais voltadas ao público infantil são observadas e analisadas. A partir dos dados obtidos até então, propõem-se algumas diretrizes preliminares de projeto, que são avaliadas por especialistas. A pesquisa define, por fim, diretrizes de projeto de e-books infantis, que permitam ao designer explorar de forma adequada os recursos tecnológicos, aprimorando a qualidade técnica dos livros digitais em contexto de alfabetização infantil.
This work studies how the project of ebooks aimed at children learning to read can be improved in order to take better advantage of technological resources and thus improve children's reading experience in this educational context. In order to do that, it begins with an overview of the ebook revolution. Afterward, a literature research, divided in three areas, is presented: the first aims to understand the target audience, their abilities and limitations with regard to reading; the second approaches the ebook, involving technical aspects and regarding the use of this digital object; the third addresses children’s ebooks under the focus of graphic design. Subsequently, an analysis on children’s books available in the market is performed on ten digital publications focused at children, which are observed and analyzed. From the data obtained so far, this work proposes some preliminary guidelines, which are evaluated by experts. The research proposes, finally, design guidelines for children's ebooks, enabling the designer to explore adequately the technological resources, and improving the technical quality of digital books in an educational context.

Abstract:

This dissertation analyzes the legal, social, technological, and cultural environment that gave rise to Google's library partnership program in order to propose an institutional corrective to Google's project to digitize cultural heritage. Interview research done with those actively involved with Google's project revealed the need for a history of the present. The class action settlement proposed sweeping changes to copyright warranting a quick response by a community of scholars seeking to advance a balanced vision of Anglo-American copyright, one where the public benefit to use and appropriate works is weighted alongside private incentives to create. The process created the conditions for institutional renewal in the public sphere through the creation of a Digital Public Library of America. By combining archival, critical legal, and interview research methods, this dissertation provides a narrative that is both analytical and deeply contextual. Google's digitization partnership in France is contrasted with its library partners program in the United States, examining Google's work in light of competing visions of intellectual property within a trans-Atlantic context.

Abstract:

El objetivo general de la tesis doctoral es estudiar el ebook científico-técnico en España en diferentes ámbitos del conocimiento y desde la perspectiva de cuatro agentes relevantes en el sector editorial. Más concretamente, se plantean dos estudios de caso a nivel macro en los que se aborda el tratamiento del ebook por parte de las agencias de suscripciones Swets y Ebsco, y por parte de una muestra de las editoriales académicas españolas especializadas en Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales. De forma complementaria, se abordan dos estudios de caso micro: el de los bibliotecarios y usuarios de la Biblioteca del Instituto de Química-Física “Rocasolano” (Biqfr) del Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC). Las metodologías empleadas en estos estudios han sido básicamente las entrevistas en profundidad y las encuestas. Los aspectos analizados varían en función del agente analizado pero van desde la actitud hacia el ebook, hacia las estrategias de marketing, las fórmulas de compra, las modificaciones en la política editorial, la gestión bibliotecaria o la aceptación por parte de los usuarios. Estos estudios has permitido identificar no solo cómo se ha producido la evolución del ebook científico desde su aparición sino, sobre todo, los cambios que ha producido y está produciendo en el sector de la información científica. También ha permitido observar las fortalezas y debilidades de cada agente con respecto al ebook y, por tanto, los problemas que quedan por afrontar. El análisis de distintos sectores ayuda a interrelacionar la actividad de los distintos agentes del sector editorial y detectar las demandas de unos hacia otros o, lo que es lo mismo, la repercusión de las acciones de unos en los otros. Además esta tesis doctoral pretende dejar constancia de una etapa del ebook en España, sabiendo que su realidad es efímera puesto que es un recurso en cambio permanente.
The general objective of this doctoral thesis is to study the Spanish scientific-technical ebook in the various areas of knowledge and from the perspective of four relevant agents in the editorial sector. More precisely, two case studies at macro level are presented on the treatment given to ebooks both by the subscription agencies Swets and Ebsco and by a sample of academic publishers specialised in Humanities and Social Science. In addition, two studies at micro level are dealt with, one on librarians and the other on the users of the library of the Instituto de Química-Física “Rocasolano” (Biqfr), belonging to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). The methodology applied in both studies has been basically in-depth interviews and surveys. The aspects analysed vary depending on the agent studied, but they include the attitude towards ebooks and marketing strategies, forms of acquisition, modifications in the publishing policy, library management and acceptance by users. These studies have allowed us not only to determine the evolution of the ebook since its appearance, but above all, the changes which have occurred and are still occurring in the scientific information sector. They have also allowed the observation of the strengths and weaknesses of each agent with regard to ebooks, and therefore, the problems which are still to be faced. The analysis of different sectors helps to interrelate the activity of the various agents of the publishing sector and to detect the demands between one and another, that is, the repercussion of the actions of some on others. Moreover, this doctoral thesis intends to record one phase of the ebook in Spain, keeping in mind that their everyday reality is short-lived, as it is a resource in permanent change.

Im Vergleich zu Smartphones, Tablets und anderen tragbaren elektronischen Geräten sind E-Book-Reader noch keine Alltagserscheinung. Dies mag erstaunen, schließlich bieten E-Books gerade im Hinblick auf die Mobilität unzweifelhaft Vorteile: Kleine und leichte Geräte bieten Speicherplatz für eine gesamte Bibliothek. Dennoch beträgt der Marktanteil von E-Books in Deutschland bislang weniger als ein Prozent, während in den USA die Verbreitung von E-Books in den letzten Jahren stark zugenommen hat. Auch das deutschsprachige Titel-Angebot ist wesentlich kleiner als in den USA. Viele Leser begegnen digitalen Büchern bislang eher mit Skepsis [1]. (...)

Abstract:

Electronic book production is a developing field which is still in its infancy. As such, there is still relatively little material available in the form of design principles or guidelines for the production of such books. It is also extremely complex, in that electronic book designers can take advantage of a number of delivery techniques which are not available to authors of traditional paper-based books. Such techniques include: multimedia (the delivery of text, pictures, sound, and moving pictures); and hypermedia (the linking of reactive information items to form non-linear structures). This research investigates some of the key issues in the design of end-user interfaces to electronic books. Essentially, this centres on three basic problems: the use of metaphors in the design of interfaces to electronic books; models for the design of multimedia pages; and the provision of various knowledge corpus structures. Interface metaphors are investigated through the implementation and evaluation of the book metaphor. Applications were developed which either embedded or did not embed the book metaphor. Subjects used these applications while undertaking a number of information access tasks. Both qualitative and performance data werecollected and some significant results were obtained. Five page models were developed (referred to as: simple; tiled; overlay; oversize; and dynamic) which were used to design a number of page structures. These page structures were evaluated using qualitative measures of user reactions to the various page structures. Seven interface dimensions were measured and again significant results were obtained. To measure the effects of knowledge corpus structure on the design of electronic books three different book structures were created: linear; tree; and network. These were investigated in the light of some common information access tasks. The results indicated that some knowledge corpus structures were more appropriate for certain types of task.

Abstract:

The goal of the thesis is to formulate suggestion to Czech universities regarding publication of textbooks and academic texts in electronic formats. The thesis also provides a general view of the Czech ebook market -- the history, formats and digital right management of ebooks are described. The process of ebook elaboration and reading devices with their pros and cons are also mentioned. The comparison of world and Czech ebook and etextbook market is emphasized and the availability of Czech etextbooks and academic text in Czech higher education institutions is mapped. The hypothesis that Czech students' demand for etextbooks is sufficient for profitable etextbook elaboration by Czech higher education institutions in the way that prevents from illegal sharing of content and violating of authorial laws is examined.

Abstract:

For the past 500 years, the printed page has served as the basic and major means of storing and presenting information and has become an everyday tool which most of us take for granted. Despite the obvious usefulness and universal nature of the printed book, however, the development of electronic technologies has led to the evolution of the concept of the electronic book. This represents a significant new medium, which offers added value to the printed book through its potential for including other media in addition to text on its pages. The thesis takes the electronic book as its main theme, putting particular emphasis on its relevance to children. The thesis includes a discussion of whether electronic books can encourage children to read both more electronic and printed books, which establishes that television, film and audio versions of texts do encourage the reading of printed editions (and vice versa). The conclusion is reached that electronic books may have the potential to exhibit the same effect, depending how similar they are to television, film and audio. The nature of classic texts and their currently decreasing popularity are considered, in addition to whether the electronic medium can and should encourage children to read more classics. An increasing awareness of the classics derived from media other than print is identified, leading to children having misconceptions about the texts. It is concluded that electronic books might have the power to bridge the gap between print and other media, introducing children to the classics in a form which is closer to the original text. An attempt was made to identify the elements which make an author popular in order that these could be incorporated into electronic books to make them more desired as reading material. Emphasising the views of children themselves, rather than critics, parents and other adults, a study investigated the popularity with young readers of the writer Roald Dahl. Participants found some qualities and characteristics in common between works by Dahl, thereby rendering them different from other books. Identifying what children like about a certain author would enable the inclusion of the desired elements into electronic books, thus encouraging children to read such books. Leading on from the potential increase in children reading electronic texts, the proposition is investigated that the medium on which a book is presented affects the reader's comprehension of, and satisfaction with the book. In order to investigate the effect of the electronic medium on comprehension, reading ability and speed, a study of user interaction with electronic books was carried out comparing children reading an electronic book incorporating the book metaphor with children reading the same text in two different printed versions. No evidence was found to suggest that the added effects and visual dimension offered by the electronic book reduced participants' comprehension of the text. Indeed, there was an indication that electronic books of this kind might actually aid the reader's comprehension of a text. If children are to read electronic books, where will they get them from? The embracing of the technology of electronic books is likely to have an effect on the principal book suppliers. The thesis therefore reports two questionnaire studies. The first investigates the opinions of children's librarians on the subject of electronic books, and the second concentrates on booksellers. Notable conclusions were that there is a positive attitude towards including electronic books as part of the children's library service, and a high proportion of libraries offer access to them, the majority through main libraries. Smaller book shops had not entered the field of selling electronic books in great numbers, and that there was general uncertainty about the place of such texts in such outlets. Respondents to both surveys believed that electronic books are durable, and can exist alongside the printed items within their concerns. Lastly, parents and schools have a role in making electronic books available to children. Due to the lack of research on the attitudes of parents and representatives of schools concerning electronic books, the thesis includes a discussion of existing surveys and studies of computer equipment in homes, schools and public libraries in order to gauge the involvement of parents and schools. This research shows that the picture of access to computer equipment for children is fairly inconsistent across the three sources under consideration. A general discussion follows, and overall conclusions are drawn, including that: the suggestion that electronic books can encourage children to read represents an area that is lacking in research and which would merit further work; the relationship between the printed book and its electronic counterpart is a symbiotic one; and the portability of electronic books is currently not of major significance, although this is likely to change with the increasing prominence of dedicated e-book readers.

Abstract:

E-books have seen a significant proliferation over recent years. In the UK, about a third of the population today owns an e-reader with about half either owning an e-reader or tablet. Nevertheless, only about 4% of readers have moved to reading e-books only. These numbers suggest that, while e-books have caught on among a large number of users, they seem to complement rather than replace books. In light of the significance of books to past and contemporary cultures and societies it is little surprising that the emergence of e-reading technologies has sparked a plethora of writing on the topic, particularly in journalism and the humanities. With a common focus on the relative merits of books and e-books, and ultimately, their respective futures (some writers go as far as either mourning or celebrating the death of the book), the debate largely suffers from a technological determinist stance, neglecting the role of social practice as a driving force in technology adoption and use. Regardless, the sheer volume of the discourse suggests that something important is at stake in the move from analogue to digital reading technologies and that books continue to be valued as physical artefacts in the digital age, if not with more fervour than ever. What is surprising then is the lack of empirical research aiming to understand how books and e-books are used and valued in everyday life. Existing work in the area is almost exclusively concerned with practices of reading, with a particular emphasis on reading in academic and professional environments, thereby not only disregarding the social and material nature of reading, but also the rich life of the book beyond its role as a reading technology. The aim of this thesis then is to provide an understanding of the practices and values surrounding books and e-books in everyday life. Based on this understanding, it further aims to explore alternatives to the current e-reading ecosystem through designs that are sensitive to some of the broader values people associate with books and e-books. To do so, it takes a situated approach to studying books and e-books as they are used over the course of their lifecycle inside and outside the home. Through a combination of a series of in-depth interviews, guided ‘home tours’, and participant diaries ‘context-rich’ data on people’s uses of, and orientations towards, books and e-books are gathered. Subsequently, design responses are iteratively developed before being returned to readers for analysis. The contribution of this thesis is fourfold: (1) an account of the socially and materially situated practices associated with books and e-books inside and outside the home, (2) an explication of the distinct, yet complementary, values reflected in and driving book and e-books use, (3) an explication of the ways in which developing a sense of self and connecting with others are actualized through the use of books and e-books, and (3) the development and in situ analysis of a design exemplar in support of these goals.
