“…The studies focused on the use of e-books (3) in higher education, identified that students perceived ease of use, satisfaction and usefulness were factors that contribute to its use, identifying its access at any time and from anywhere as the main advantage for using e-books (Maduku, 2015;Sieche, Krey, & Bastiaens, 2013;Tri-Agif, Noorhidawati, & Ghalebandi, 2016).…”

Digital technologies are an integral part of Higher Education teaching, revealing a set of technologies chosen to integrate formal learning contexts, and therefore being used by students in support of learning. This paper presents a literature review mapping the digital technologies set for higher education students to use in formal education contexts, over the last five years between 2012 and 2017. Results show a pattern of technologies reflecting teacher’s choice for methods combining face-to-face and at distance learning, frequently in relation to the adoption of flipped classroom methods. Mapping the digital technologies used by students, showed a pattern of three most used in a total of nine types identified. Institutional Learning Management Systems mainly support a wider access to information and learning materials, followed by technologies that promote publishing and sharing content related to class activities, and a broad range of technologies categorized under ICTs. The overall impact of use of technologies in students learning process and outcomes revealed to be positive, used with the intention to promote students’ active engagement and participation in the learning process inside and outside the classroom walls. The data also revealed digital technologies to support more transmissive ways of teaching, facilitating students individually to Access, share and publish information, and significantly lesser used to promote collaborative and cooperative learning.

“…Therefore, e-books are nowadays becoming an increasingly viable format (Landoni and Hanlon, 2007) that will make it easier for readers to read books in a variety of places, while also facilitating access to interesting books. Most libraries, including academic libraries, have included e-books in their collections (Tri-Agif et al, 2016). It has meant that e-books are able to provide readers and researchers with access to information at the time and location of their (research) need.…”

Currently, there is a more frequent replacement of books by e-books, which have become an increasingly viable format and make it easier for readers to read books in a variety of places. Public libraries therefore focus more often on the provision of e-books as one of the components of their digital services. However, these services do not always meet with an adequate demand from readers due to several factors, such as service charges or a lack of awareness. Therefore, in this article, the authors focus on the demand side, represented by e-book readers. Specifically, they focus on the Municipal Library of Prague’s e-book readers’ behaviour and propose a three-step research model. It consists of analyses focusing on: (1) the specifics of the Municipal Library of Prague’s e-book readers; (2) e-book readers’ interest in borrowing e-books; and (3) e-book readers’ interest in the Municipal Library of Prague’s e-service when they must pay a fee. As a data source, the authors use unique data from an online questionnaire survey among readers of the Municipal Library of Prague in 2019 by the Sociores agency. The results show that science fiction and fantasy readers represent the most significant group of e-book readers at the Municipal Library of Prague, and that Facebook is the most significant channel for communication with e-book readers. The authors also confirm the importance of e-book readers and smartphones as devices that significantly affect readers’ decision to read e-books. In the final part of the article, the authors propose some practical recommendations that could attract more e-book readers.

“…However, they differ in terms of sharing with others. For example, Tri-Agif et al [19] conducted an analysis of the intention to continue using e-books for students in higher education. They performed a factor analysis based on 509 questionnaire data.…”

With the ever-growing "electronic book" (e-book) market, more people are reading e-books. Along with that, social reading, for its social sharing of e-books, has gained more attention; readers may read an e-book while viewing comments on the contents of the e-book. We evaluated the impression of social reading using an experimental system to clarify its effect. Furthermore, we performed factor and customer satisfaction analyses to evaluate the impression. The results indicated that reading while viewing comments is valuable as it gives a sense of excitement and new discoveries. Moreover, we realized that there is a need to improve the method of giving readers satisfaction to "comment writing and enjoyment".
