If you like books but think that they are a little heavy to carry around you should try a digital reading device. We thought so and are experimenting with it now. The university library of Trondheim is promoting reading devices with e-books and e-articles form the reading lists of Archaeology spring semester 2010. The project is the first attempt to use e-books actively and read them in the devices of inc-technology. A Phd candidate has got the possibility to use the amazon kindle for 2 weeks to see whether he would be happy with such a service from our library! A master student will try to use that as a service next week. Their comments will be submitted to this blog soon. By January 2010 it will be possible for 10 students from 2 different subjects to participate for a pilot project in trying out the devices and give us feedback. The academic editor Tapir is involved in the project as well.
More about that to come!
