We like gadgets at Cambridge Journals, be they phones, ereaders or tablets, and we\u2019ve noticed our readers do too. Over the coming months we\u2019ll be looking at how we can make Cambridge Journals stretch and shrink onto all sorts of screen sizes and still give our readers a full experience. But for now, we\u2019re offering journal subscribers an extra takeaway on selected titles \u2013 articles in EPUB format.
\nEPUB combines the portability of a PDF with the richness and adaptability of HTML. Text can be resized and reflowed to the user\u2019s preference. It offers real flexibility of presentation, while retaining a comfortable reading experience.
\nWe\u2019ve opted for the emerging EPUB3 standard, rather than the usually accepted EPUB2 format, because we are clear that that is where the industry is headed. It will also allow us to include rich media elements such as video and audio in line with articles when we roll that out on Cambridge Journals.
\nThey\u2019re great on Kobo or Nook e-readers. If you\u2019re an iPad user, you can download straight from CJO (or CJO Mobile) and open the file in iBooks, Bluefire<\/a> or your chosen eReader app. Android users can do the same using Gitden<\/a>, Aldiko<\/a> or Moon+ Reader<\/a>. It\u2019ll also work on your smartphone.
\nWe\u2019re beginning to release EPUB articles as a public beta on a range of titles (listed at the foot of this post). You\u2019ll find EPUB versions for all future articles from these journals, though we\u2019re not converting backfiles for now.
\nSo grab a paper, load it into whatever device you wish, and let us know how you get on with it through the usual channels \u2013 contact journals@cambridge.org , tweet us at @CambridgeJnls or leave a note on our Facebook wall<\/a>.<\/p>\n
