6. • “There is no doubt that e-books are a bright spot in the dismal
economics of publishing. The current market is strong — according to a
recent Harris Interactive poll, one in six Americans now uses an e-
reader, and that number will grow as consumers become more
comfortable with the technology.”
• The Association of American Publishers reports that e-books have risen
in 2010 to 6.4% of the trade market, up from 0.6% in 2008. The
Institute for Publishing Research predicts that by 2015, e-book sales
will increase to $3.6 billion, from $78 million in 2008. In publishing
terms, that’s petrodollars.

7. • Sobre os livros digitais e os impressos, a pesquisa
Retratos da Leitura no Brasil mostra que a maioria,
52%, acredita que os livros tradicionais nunca vão
acabar e que irão conviver igualmente com os digitais.
Dezessete por cento dizem que os impressos vão
continuar, mas em pequenas edições. Para 7%, é uma
questão de tempo para que os livros no papel deixem
de ser publicados. Outros 7% afirmam que os digitais
serão sempre para poucos interessados.

13. “Digital textbooks done
wrong”
E-textbooks are too expensive
• The e-textbooks we surveyed cost on average exactly the same as a new hard copy of
the same title bought and sold back to the bookstore.
• The e-textbooks we surveyed cost on average 39% more than a used hard copy of the
same title bought and sold back online.
Printing is costly and difficult
• Printing was limited to 10 pages per session for each of the e-textbooks we surveyed.
• Buying and printing half of an e-textbook was three times the cost of buying a used
hard copy and selling it back to the bookstore, for the books we surveyed.
E-textbooks are difficult to access
• Students have to choose between using the book online or using it offline - they cannot
do both.
• Most (75%) of the e-textbooks we surveyed expired after 180 days, so students do not
have the option to access their books in the future.

any medium that reside in the public domain or have
been released under an open licence that permits
their free use and re-purposing by others. An open
license is one that allows anyone to access, reuse,
modify and share the OER. The use of open technical
standard for OER platforms and files improves access
and reuse potential of OERs which are developed and
published digitally.”

25. Abertura e acesso: Livros didáticos abertos
“open source textbooks”
Open textbooks "are textbooks that are freely available
with nonrestrictive licenses. Covering a wide range of
disciplines, open textbooks are available to download and
print in various file formats from several web sites and
OER repositories. Open textbooks can range from public
domain books to existing textbooks to textbooks created
specifically for OER. Open textbooks help solve the
problems of the high cost of textbooks, book shortages,
and access to textbooks as well as providing the capacity
to better meet local teaching and learning needs" (ISKME).

• “We are now in a transformational period.
Everything we have has to be two worlds:
print and digital.”
• “The future of learning is going to be high-
quality online material and, to a lesser extent,
textbooks.’’

63. Why Invest in Open?
Inclusion/cooperation
Wide dissemination of education contributes to more
inclusive and cohesive societies, fosters equal
opportunities and innovation in line with the priorities
of a renewed social agenda focused on the knowledge
society. In this sense, this study brings a series of
recommendations to foster this dialogue.

66. “In any case, it is clear that a library containing all
possible books, arranged at random, is equivalent
(as a source of information) to a library containing
zero books.”

It has a voice that allows
you to read yourself and
you are invited to
contribute to its writing.”
