EPUB 3 Case Study with Kaplan

Tuesday, March 13, 2012 by Sabrina Ricci

The last of the four part Understanding EPUB 3.0 webcast series was dedicated to a case study, presented by Kaplan Publishing. To read the about the other three webcasts, please see my posts EPUB3, EPUB 3.0 Workflow, and The New Kindle Format (KF8). Kaplan students are very attached to print products, since they've developed their study skills around them. So the question … [Read more...] about EPUB 3 Case Study with Kaplan

iAuthor

Thursday, February 9, 2012 by Sabrina Ricci

Three weeks ago, Apple launched an exciting new app: iAuthor. It sounded very promising. Using iAuthor, you can drag and drop to make enhanced ebooks. iAuthor and iBooks2 were released on the same day with the intention of making it easier for students to use interactive textbooks. All textbooks sold on the iBookstore are priced at $14.99 or less. But anyone can use iAuthor to … [Read more...] about iAuthor

iPad: 2.0

Tuesday, March 15, 2011 by Sabrina Ricci

Friday, March 11 was the day the iPad 2 came out. I happened to be in California, so I can only imagine how long the lines were in New York, but at the Shops at Mission Viejo, there was a line that wrapped around the second floor twice. People sat in lawn chairs and cheered when the folks at the Mac store announced they would be opening at 5 p.m. I can only hope they had a lot … [Read more...] about iPad: 2.0

This Week In Publishing

Thursday, December 23, 2010 by Sabrina Ricci

I'll keep it short and light-hearted, since it's almost Christmas and all. First, Nick Bilton, from the New York Times, has declared that this year was not in fact the year of the tablet. It was actually the year of the iPad, and next year there will be more competitors. It will be interesting to see, since so many people want the iPad for Christmas. 2010 Was Not 'The … [Read more...] about This Week In Publishing

Barnes & Noble

Wednesday, December 15, 2010 by Sabrina Ricci

Rumor has it that Barnes & Noble may no longer exist one year from now. In the meantime, I can enjoy their stores and Christmas decorations. And I can also play around with their Nook. The new color Nook was recently released. It uses LED like Apple's iPad, but it's formatted similarly to Amazon's Kindle--with a twist. There's an interesting feature that shows book … [Read more...] about Barnes & Noble

11/29/10: Publishing This Week

Friday, December 3, 2010 by Sabrina Ricci

California, as a way to save money and improve education, is going to use open source, free textbooks (yay!). Since there's not enough money to give every student a laptop, there's some skepticism as to how well this will work. But it's the first state to try this and something is better than nothing (California K-12 education was ranked 49th in 2009). As a side note, Michelle … [Read more...] about 11/29/10: Publishing This Week

This Week in Publishing

Thursday, November 18, 2010 by Sabrina Ricci

Here's what's going on in the publishing industry this week: It's JFK month. Makes sense, since this year marks the 50th anniversary of his election. On Monday The Perseus Books Group, along with NBC News, released a new iPad app, JFK: 50 Days. The app complements the new book, "JFK Day by Day," and it features 50 days of JFK's presidency, including rare footage from … [Read more...] about This Week in Publishing
