Talks

Abstract

Cette présentation expose un bref état des lieux du livre électronique dans les deux bibliothèques universitaires lausannoises. Tout d'abord, nous abordons le prêt de tablettes de lecture (e-readers) en relatant l'expérience de la Bibliothèque Cantonale Universitaire (BCU) qui a récemment mis à disposition de ses lecteurs des appareils Kindle DX et Apple iPad. Ceux-ci ont rencontré un grand succès auprès des utilisateurs, mais la gestion de leur contenu reste difficile à gérer dans le cadre d'une bibliothèque. Dans un deuxième temps, nous évoquons la collection de livres électroniques de la Bibliothèque de l'EPFL pour passer rapidement en revue les différentes étapes du "circuit du livre" électronique: sélection, acquisition, catalogage, relevé des statistiques et conservation à long terme.

E-reader

An e-reader, also called an e-book reader or e-book device, is a mobile electronic device that is designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital e-books and periodicals. Any device that can display text on a screen may act as an e-reader; however, specialized e-reader devices may optimize portability, readability, and battery life for this purpose. Their main advantage over printed books is portability. This is because an e-reader is capable of holding thousands of books while weighing less than one book, and the convenience provided due to add-on features.

IPad

The iPad is a brand of iOS and iPadOS-based tablet computers that are developed by Apple Inc, first introduced on January 27, 2010. The iPad range consists of the original iPad lineup and the flagship products iPad Mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro. The iPhone's iOS operating system (OS) was initially used for the iPad but in September 2019, its OS was switched to a fork of iOS called iPadOS that has better support for the device's hardware and its user interface is customized for the tablets' larger screens.

Ebook

An ebook (short for electronic book), also known as an e-book or eBook, is a book publication made available in digital form, consisting of text, images, or both readable on the flat-panel display of computers or other electronic devices. Although sometimes defined as "an electronic version of a printed book", some e-books exist without a printed equivalent. E-books can be read on dedicated e-reader devices, but also on any computer device that features a controllable viewing screen, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
