Picture eBooks

6/18/2013

Children's librarian Anna attended a BCCLS Joint Committee meeting, which discussed standards for acquiring picture eBooks. This is still a sticky area of publishing because publishers do not always ePublish picture books as they were meant to be viewed (ie, eReaders display one page at a time, rather than a two-page spread). What are your thoughts on picture eBooks? We would love to hear from you.
