At a recent Westminster Media Forum event, the future of ebooks and the role of libraries in that future were on the agenda. Academic publishing and libraries were seen as leaders within the ebook development. Text books are being developed that can -take advantage of cross platform solutions, including ebooks that tie in with apps, social media and the web. In this issue, the paper from Stoop, Kreutzer and Kircz is a second part to their study in changing habits into reading and learning from screens versus print. This paper addresses changing presentations of educational texts on paper, LCD screen and through a mind map. They point out that screen technology and software developments are changing continuously and comment that the new way of reading and learning using electronic devices allows for fast and comprehensive delivery of materials, but also induces new ways of composing, structuring and mutually relating the various presentations of the underlying knowledge and instructions.
