The JISC National E-books Observatory Project


As part of our commitment to providing the latest resources, Information Services became part of the JISC National E-books Observatory Project - an experiment aiming to understand how e-books are being used that could help to shape the future of e-book provision in the UK. The project is investigating:
  • the impact of core text e-books on student learning;
  • how students find and use e-books;
  • what they think of them;
  • how e-books can be promoted;
  • how e-books might fulfil their potential as a vital educational resource.
