"I'm used to reading and highlighting - I couldn't do this"

Participants in EBONI psychology evaluation

Bookmarking, annotating and highlighting facilities, often supplied by commercial ebook reader software products, can be awkward, difficult or time-consuming to use. If such facilities are provided, they should be as powerful, straightforward and quick to use as possible. Users would also like to perform advanced functions using these features, such as searching across annotations, or generating lists of annotations for use in other applications.


16.1 Ebook reader software should include powerful but simple-to-use bookmarking and annotating facilities
16.2 Bookmarking and annotating facilities should be powerful, flexible and capable of performing advanced functions
