MARKETINTELL NOW: EBOOKS POLL
Project Gutenberg recently received an email from MarketIntellNow,
(http://www.marketintellnow.com) a Maryland-based, six-year old market
research firm that focuses on nascent niches. They do a lot of polling using
a methodology called "ANWO", they then blog about the results at a high
level (for free) while selling the resulting report in their eStore.
Of late they have started examining the world of eBooks and just recently
polled 5,000 Netizens on the subject.
I emailed them back to see if they could pass along some insights on what the
poll told, here is their response;
eBooks has to date been all ranch, no cattle. That's about to change;
here's why:
Amazon and others are about to deliver a dizzying array of e-titles of all
types. Sure, there's still the format issue (Sony Reader unwisely landlocks
users with their BBeB format) but this will wash out fast, because the revenue
opportunity is vast. Never underestimate America's slavish love of speed and
convenience; our survey of 5,000 Netizens shows that a big reason eBooks is
at the inflection point is because readers want what they want
instantaneously.

...and talking of Polls...
Some time back I started a poll to see how many e-texts from the PG archives
our visitors have read. As there was almost no response for this I decided to
leave the poll running.
Now though, I think it is time to wrap this one up. So, if you have not
already voted then visit www.gutenbergnews.org and place your vote now!
Here are the current results;
How many e-texts have you read from the PG archives?
* 26% -- 200+
* 21% -- 1-10
* 18% -- 10-20
* 13% -- 50-100
* 11% -- 20-50
* 11% -- 100-200
Total Voters: 38
This poll will close in two weeks and the results will be shown in the
21-November-2007 Newsletter.

NOTES:
To arrive at the Newsletter statistics a manual count was done on all the
'posted' listings found in the Newsletter Archives. For PG-EU the website
listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.
DP-CA - Like the European project this has many books posted to both the PG and
PG-CA sites, non U.S. clearable books posted to PG-CA only. Please note that
only the non-clearable ('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and
not the overall PG-CA total.
PREPRINTS -- http://preprints.readingroo.ms
Please note that the PrePrint files are just that, PrePrints, and thus may move
later to other locations, including the main collection or The Project
Gutenberg Consortia Center.

================================================================================
So it is finally here, TEI v1.0 of P5. Around six months ago I did some research into TEI and noted there was some big improvements over P4. If you need a mature XML based markup (perhaps for use as a Master File Format) I would certainly recommend having look at TEI P5.
Here is the official notification of the release;
After more than 6 years of, at times quite intensive, development, it is with great pleasure that I announce the release of version 1.0 of P5, the latest and greatest version of the Guidelines of the Text Encoding Initiative, which officially happened Nov. 2 at the TEI Members Meeting in Maryland. You will find the new version online at www.tei-c.org; a PDF and even printed books are expected to appear in due time.
Project Gutenberg recently received an email from MarketIntellNow, a Maryland-based, six-year old market research firm that focuses on nascent niches. They do a lot of polling using a methodology called “ANWO”, they then blog about the results at a high level (for free) while selling the resulting report in their eStore.
Of late they have started examining the world of eBooks and just recently polled 5,000 Netizens on the subject.
I emailed them back to see if they could pass along some insights on what the poll told, here is their response;
eBooks has to date been all ranch, no cattle. That’s about to change; here’s why:
Amazon and others are about to deliver a dizzying array of e-titles of all types. Sure, there’s still the format issue (Sony Reader unwisely landlocks users with their BBeB format) but this will wash out fast, because the revenue opportunity is vast. Never underestimate America’s slavish love of speed and convenience; our survey of 5,000 Netizens shows that a big reason eBooks is at the inflection point is because readers want what they want instantaneously.
In response to our Shakespeare Actors Wanted request, where we are looking for volunteers actors to read the plays of Shakespeare, I had an email from a Peter Pressman who wrote to me about the Speak The Speech project. This is a group of volunteers who are wanting to make Shakespeare more universally accessible by producing audio recordings of all his plays.
The Cybook Gen3 from Bookeen is an ultra-light reading device that uses the E ink® screen technology (VizPlex), giving a paper-like high contrast appearance that is readable even under direct sunlight. As with all E-Ink devices the battery gives a great number of page turns, though the Cybook is a little better than the Sony Reader Digital Book (PRS-505), reaching an impressive 8,000 page turns. The Cybook also reads many different file formats, including the MobiPocket format, and offers access to a wide range of digital documents. In the future the Cybook will also have a firmware upgrade to allow EPUB files to be read.
This is a fantastic feat for LibriVox who do great work on producing public domain audio recordings, much of which gets passed to the Project Gutenberg archives. Congratulations to everyone involved!

NOTES:
To arrive at the Newsletter statistics a manual count was done on all the
'posted' listings found in the Newsletter Archives. For PG-EU the website
listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.
DP-CA - Like the European project this has many books posted to both the PG and
PG-CA sites, non U.S. clearable books posted to PG-CA only. Please note that
only the non-clearable ('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and
not the overall PG-CA total.
PREPRINTS -- http://preprints.readingroo.ms
Please note that the PrePrint files are just that, PrePrints, and thus may move
later to other locations, including the main collection or The Project
Gutenberg Consortia Center.

THE DIGITAL LIBRARY FOR DISABLED PERSONS (BNH, FRANCE)
by Marie Lebert, October 2007
The Digital Library for Disabled Persons (BnH: Bibliotheque Numerique pour
le Handicap) is a novel project compared to other current projects. For the
first time, public service offers an adapted access to books, not an access
to adapted books. This project was launched by the City of
Boulogne-Billancourt, located near Paris, France. The project manager is
Alain Patez, who is a digital librarian at the City Library. After an
experimental phase from January 2006 to September 2007, the BnH is now open
to all disabled persons, whatever the handicap, permanent or temporary, and
wherever they live in metropolitan France, for now. The BnH wants to operate
as a public library does, i.e. to buy recent books - in this case, digital
books: fiction, non-fiction, best-sellers, etc. - and make them available in
various formats to its members. Its principles are to provide easy access to
these books on standard hardware (desktop computers, laptop computers, PDAs,
smartphones, etc.) and free software, while respecting the rights of authors
and publishers. The technical platform of the BnH is run by Numilog, the main
company specializing in the distribution of digital books.

NOTES:
To arrive at the Newsletter statistics a manual count was done on all the
'posted' listings found in the Newsletter Archives. For PG-EU the website
listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.
DP-CA - Like the European project this has many books posted to both the PG and
PG-CA sites, non U.S. clearable books posted to PG-CA only. Please note that
only the non-clearable ('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and
not the overall PG-CA total.
PREPRINTS -- http://preprints.readingroo.ms
Please note that the PrePrint files are just that, PrePrints, and thus may move
later to other locations, including the main collection or The Project
Gutenberg Consortia Center.

================================================================================
The Digital Library for Disabled Persons (BnH: Bibliotheque Numerique pour le Handicap) is a novel project compared to other current projects. For the first time, public service offers an adapted access to books, not an access to adapted books. This project was launched by the City of Boulogne-Billancourt, located near Paris, France. The project manager is Alain Patez, who is a digital librarian at the City Library. After an experimental phase from January 2006 to September 2007, the BnH is now open to all disabled persons, whatever the handicap, permanent or temporary, and wherever they live in metropolitan France, for now. The BnH wants to operate as a public library does, i.e. to buy recent books – in this case, digital books: fiction, non-fiction, best-sellers, etc. – and make them available in various formats to its members. Its principles are to provide easy access to these books on standard hardware (desktop computers, laptop computers, PDAs, smartphones, etc.) and free software, while respecting the rights of authors and publishers. The technical platform of the BnH is run by Numilog, the main company specializing in the distribution of digital books.
This last week the combined PG projects hit the 25,000th eBook. The book that was posted is;
