{"product_id":"2940013820043","title":"E-Book Enlightenment: Reading And Leading With One Laptop Per Child","description":"This book was written for the One Laptop Per Child project to explain to teachers and students alike how to make effective use of free e-books. However, most of the material in the book will be of interest to anyone who wants to do things with e-books. The book covers where to find free e-books, what formats of e-books are available, how to make e-books in every format, and how to get them published, either using your own book server or through sites like Project Gutenberg, the Internet Archive, and even the Kindle Store. It also covers how you can make an e-book out of a printed book, how to know if a book is in the public domain, how to build your own high speed book scanner, how to use Booki to collaborate on writing an e-book on the web, and more. It's everything you always wanted to know about e-books (but were afraid to ask).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen I wrote this book I did not just compile information from other sources. I did everything I describe in the book. I created donations for the Internet Archive, Project Gutenberg, and Project Gutenberg Canada. I published five books on the Kindle Store. I wrote some of the e-book finding and reading software described in the book. I installed all the Book Server software described in the book, and I installed my own Booki. I designed and built my own book scanner. I wrote books using Booki, and assisted with the translation of one of them. I also read a lot of free e-books, in every format. I think I've done everything you could do with e-books except actually make money on the Nook Store. I'm still working on that one!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere's a e-book revolution coming and if you want to be a part of it this book will start you on your way!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTable Of Contents:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    Introduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      Reading And Leading With One Laptop Per Child\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    Finding E-Books\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e      Sources For Free E-Books\u003cbr\u003e      Free E-Book Formats\u003cbr\u003e      Sugar Activities For Finding E-Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    Sugar Activities For Reading E-Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      The Read Activity\u003cbr\u003e      The Read Etexts Activity\u003cbr\u003e      The View Slides Activity\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e    Creating Your Own E-Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      Before We Begin\u003cbr\u003e      Converting Your Own Documents\u003cbr\u003e      Booki\u003cbr\u003e      Scanning Book Pages\u003cbr\u003e      Making PDF's\u003cbr\u003e      Making CBZ's\u003cbr\u003e      Making DjVu's\u003cbr\u003e      Making Plain Text Files\u003cbr\u003e      Making EPUB's\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e   Publishing Your E-Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      Introduction\u003cbr\u003e      Copyrights, Licenses And Fair Use\u003cbr\u003e      Donating E-Books To The Internet Archive\u003cbr\u003e      Donating Texts To Project Gutenberg\u003cbr\u003e      calibre\u003cbr\u003e      The Pathagar Book Server\u003cbr\u003e      gen Collection Interface gCI\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Appendix\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e      Making A Book Scanner\u003cbr\u003e      Getting A Rule 6 Copyright Clearance\u003cbr\u003e      A Booki Of Your Own\u003cbr\u003e      About The Authors\u003cbr\u003e      Credits","brand":"James Simmons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175642743024,"sku":"2940013820043","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013820043_p0.jpg?v=1763595121","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013820043","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
