Abstract Purpose – The purpose is to bring together all bibliographic references of the published literature on electronic books (e-books) and related technologies in one source so that it will save time for others in conducting literature searches and reviewing the developments. Design/methodology/approach – The information included in this bibliography is collected systematically from all the published sources in the world such as journal articles, conference papers, conference proceedings, books, reports and PhD theses on e-books until the last quarter of 2004. Mainly it covers e-books, e-books publishing, the impact of e-books on different types of users, e-book publishing techniques and trends, e-book user interfaces and other technologies related to e-publications. Findings – As computer usage continues to grow exponentially, the desire of users to use electronic publications (e-publications) has also increased tremendously. This has led to the publication of materials in electronic form as e-publications on both CD-ROMs and web. The e-book is one of the several forms of e-publications and its popularity has been growing steadily for the past decade. Originality/value – This bibliography will be useful to all researchers conducting research in any areas related to e-books and e-book publishing. Keywords Electronic books, Bibliographies Paper type Literature review

Introduction The desire of users to use e-publications has increased exponentially with computer usage. This has led to the publication of materials in electronic form as e-publications on both CD-ROMs and world wide web. The electronic book (e-book) is one of the several forms of e-publications and its popularity has been growing steadily over the past five or six years – with users including educators, businessmen, mobile users, libraries and children. The information on e-books included in this bibliography has been collected from a variety of published sources including journal articles, conference papers, conference proceedings, books, reports, serial and PhD theses up until the end of 2004. The coverage includes e-books, e-books publishing, e-book publishing trends, techniques, e-book user interfaces and other technologies related to e-publications. The bibliography is organized alphabetically by author within the headings: journal articles; books on e-books; major conferences on electronic books; conference proceedings and papers on e-books; serials on e-books; PhD theses on e-books and related areas.
