 <link>http://connect.educause.edu/display/45853</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;This ECAR research bulletin examines the hype and the reality of e-books in higher education. Some experts predict that 2007-2009 will be transition years for the higher education e-book market, with large growth expected in both digital textbooks and digital library collections. Publishers and campuses alike are exploring the use of e-books and other forms of digital content. Are we approaching the tipping point in e-book usage on college campuses from occasional oddity to a mainstream technology?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Citation for this work&lt;/em&gt;: Nelson, Mark, R. &amp;quot;E-Books in Higher Education: Nearing the End of the Era of Hype?&amp;quot; (Research Bulletin, Issue 1).
