Abstract: This report discusses current developments and issues which public, national, and higher education libraries, publishers, aggregators, and preservation institutions must contend to ensure long-term access to eBook content. These issues include legal questions about the use, reuse, sharing and preservation of eBook objects ; format issues, including the tight coupling of eBook content with particular hardware platforms ; the embedding of digital rights management artefacts in eBook files to restrict access to them ; and the diverse ecosystem of eBook publication, with its associated complexities of communities of use and, ultimately, expectations for preservation.
