Electronic Reading Strategies

The vast majority of my Research Strategies class did not find the EBook reading experience pleasurable.  Reasons for the lack EBook reading enjoyment included:

-- eyestrain and headaches
-- frustration reading on a small screen (if reading from a mobile phone)
-- frustration reading on a computer screen, period
-- lack of relevant EBooks in the collection
-- basic preference for reading print
-- fear of EReader falling into the toilet (oh, sorry, that's mine)

The Academic Learning Center gave a presentation to the librarians last week on Electronic Reading Strategies.  Their PowerPoint on "Electronic Reading Challenges and Strategies" is available here.  

Take a look at their strategies and give them a shot.  How does it affect your EBook reading experience?
