 What eBook formats do you offer?

  • Individuals can purchase our eBooks as PDF or EPUB files for most books.
  • Our Institutional Collections for libraries are based on PDF files.
  • PDF is the most popular document publishing format for general use. In order to give users a simpler and less cluttered reading interface, Adobe developed Digital Editions, a free download especially for reading ebooks. The benefit of viewing PDF ebooks is that they retain the original design of each page - so you see on your screen exactly what the book designer intended.
  • The EPUB format is perfect for reading on smaller screens, because the lines of text 'reflow' and adjust to accommodate varying font sizes and screen sizes. Adobe Digital Editions has been developed to make it possible for you to read your favourite ebooks on computers as well as a wide variety of hand-held devices, phones and ebook reading devices.

What eReaders can I use with ER Publishing eBooks?

  • The eBooks.com site has a good summary of the devices that are supported by them and how to access different file types.  They include your standard desktop computer as well as popular mobile devices such as the Apple iPad, Sony Reader, Nook and Kobo Reader.
  • Dymocks also offer a useful Digital Help page that explains how to use different file formats on the various devices.
  • Kobo is a dedeciated reading device, and they have also produced an App that allows eBooks to be read on Smartphones including iPhone, Blackberry and Android.
  • Kindle is also a dedicated eReader with an App available for reading on mobile devices.

Why are some files free to download?

  • Some publications are free on our site due to special funding arrangements made with sponsoring bodies, allowing us to provide them to you at no cost.

What is the access model for libraries?

  • Our eBook Collections are sold as perpetual access, and there is no limit to the number of concurrent users. Please contact our Customer Service Team for a trial.

How is access enabled in libraries?

Are MARC records provided for libraries?

  • MARC records are available for download by libraries through the administrative portal of the platform.

Can a library user download an eBook in an ordinary web browser?

  • Yes. The eBook file can be downloaded as a PDF and read in Adobe Reader or as an EPUB and read in Adobe Digital Editions. Individual chapters can be downloaded as PDFs.

Can you provide user statistics for library users?

  • Yes. We are COUNTER 4.0 compliant and libraries will be able to access user statistics for a collection and for individual titles from their administrative portal.
