Pennington, who's a reading specialist in Elk Grove near Sacramento, Calif., sees a need to teach kids how to read digitally and stay engaged, and thinks that digital reading will eventually catch up to what kids can do reading print. When asked if his seventh-graders are more engaged when reading from digital readers or in print, he said it depends -- motivation and environment play a big role.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Most of the digital reading that students 'practice' is at home on Instagram, chat lines, Facebook and texting,\" he said. \"Since students are choosing to read and respond in these mediums, and since students have considerable prior knowledge and expertise in the subject matter, their engagement/comprehension is high.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trick to being a good reader, no matter the medium, is being an engaged reader, a fact that Pennington notes is well-supported by \u003ca href=\"http://www.doe.virginia.gov/instruction/virginia_tiered_system_supports/training/higher_ed/tch_students_generate_questions_review.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">research\u003c/a>. \"It's pretty clear that good readers are active readers engaged with the text,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\"You can also flip back and forth very easily, and spatially, there are advantages to print media.\"\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>One of the best ways for readers to show engagement with the text, he said, is through marginal annotations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are real advantages to print,\" he said. \"You can write on the text right there,\" noting that if students aren't allowed to write in textbooks, they can use small sticky notes that come off easily. \"You can also flip back and forth very easily, and spatially, there are advantages to print media.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making those annotations in digital readers, like iPads and Chromebooks, can be more challenging than grabbing a pencil and sticky note.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Pennington's seventh graders took the Smarter Balanced Assessment in English Language Arts on new Chromebooks last April, Pennington didn't teach them how to use the test's annotation feature. Students would have been able to highlight reading passages and take notes on the text to help them answer test questions. He thought it was too complicated for them to learn how to use well in time for the test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was so cumbersome,\" he said. Students had to turn on the annotation feature, move back and forth between screens, remember the location of the notes, and then return to the questions they were trying to answer. He said for most of his students, it would have been tricky to \"walk and chew gum at the same time,\" so he shelved it.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>DRAWBACKS OF DEVICES...FOR NOW\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>While ever more schools adopt textbooks and student reading materials to digital readers like iPads and Chromebooks, some recent research suggests students may comprehend more from reading print.

Pennington, who's a reading specialist in Elk Grove near Sacramento, Calif., sees a need to teach kids how to read digitally and stay engaged, and thinks that digital reading will eventually catch up to what kids can do reading print. When asked if his seventh-graders are more engaged when reading from digital readers or in print, he said it depends -- motivation and environment play a big role.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Most of the digital reading that students 'practice' is at home on Instagram, chat lines, Facebook and texting,\" he said. \"Since students are choosing to read and respond in these mediums, and since students have considerable prior knowledge and expertise in the subject matter, their engagement/comprehension is high.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trick to being a good reader, no matter the medium, is being an engaged reader, a fact that Pennington notes is well-supported by \u003ca href=\"http://www.doe.virginia.gov/instruction/virginia_tiered_system_supports/training/higher_ed/tch_students_generate_questions_review.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">research\u003c/a>. \"It's pretty clear that good readers are active readers engaged with the text,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\"You can also flip back and forth very easily, and spatially, there are advantages to print media.\"\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>One of the best ways for readers to show engagement with the text, he said, is through marginal annotations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are real advantages to print,\" he said. \"You can write on the text right there,\" noting that if students aren't allowed to write in textbooks, they can use small sticky notes that come off easily. \"You can also flip back and forth very easily, and spatially, there are advantages to print media.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making those annotations in digital readers, like iPads and Chromebooks, can be more challenging than grabbing a pencil and sticky note.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Pennington's seventh graders took the Smarter Balanced Assessment in English Language Arts on new Chromebooks last April, Pennington didn't teach them how to use the test's annotation feature.

He thought it was too complicated for them to learn how to use well in time for the test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was so cumbersome,\" he said. Students had to turn on the annotation feature, move back and forth between screens, remember the location of the notes, and then return to the questions they were trying to answer.

And we heard from a lot of younger e-book readers about how e-books just fit into their lives — how they can read when they're waiting in line for class, or waiting in line for lunch. One reader in particular told us that when he has a book that he loves, he wants to be able to access it in any format. So with the Harry Potter series and the [Song of Ice and Fire] series, he's actually bought all of those books as print books and as e-books, just because they matter that much to him ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We haven't seen for younger readers that e-books are massively replacing print books.

And so a lot of libraries are looking at ways to sort of give them their own space in the libraries, have activities just for them.

Or even the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the craze around\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/04/when-technologies-collide-consumer-k-12-and-higher-ed/\"> Apple’s iPad\u003c/a>, it's only been two years since the device was introduced, and that may not be enough time to separate fad from trend over the long term in education. And while the iPad’s presence – and promotion by the Apple faithful since its launch in 2010 – is hard to ignore, a winning tablet trend hasn’t been clearly established on a global basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s certainly true that tablets are on the upswing in K-12 schools and higher education. There’s no shortage of U.S. numbers to cite. Going beyond statistics of tablet penetration (in one case, most recently, 25% of college students and 17% of college seniors), it’s in the composition of purchases where the data can get interesting. For example, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.pearsonfoundation.org/pr/20120314-new-survey-finds-dramatic-increase-in-tablet-ownership-among-college-students-and-high-school-seniors.html\">Harris Interactive/Pearson Foundation survey \u003c/a>released in March gave iPads the largest share among college students (at 63%), followed by the Kindle Fire (26%) and the Samsung Galaxy Tab (15%).\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>As U.S. education appears to be moving toward tablets in pockets here and there, other countries’ education officials are embracing them in bulk.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Another way to read those figures: It’s roughly a 60/40 split between Apple’s iOS operating system and all flavors of Android devices (“flavors” might be the right word, as Android has named its more recent OS versions Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread). These \u003ca href=\"http://www.geekwire.com/2012/kindle-fire-captures-majority-android-tablet-market/\">relative rankings\u003c/a> among popular Android tablets in education mirror the broader U.S. consumer market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the scope of some big decisions made by international government agencies – and the price of non-U.S. devices – could upset the apple cart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider India. Last fall saw the launch of the highly touted US$50 Aakash Android tablet for education (subsidized to US$35). That initiative \u003ca href=\"http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tech/news/hardware/Whats-troubling-Indian-govts-35-tablet/articleshow/11990312.cms\">subsequently stumbled\u003c/a> following reports the first models built by the UK firm \u003ca href=\"http://aakashtablet.com/\">DataWind\u003c/a> were sluggish and fragile. The government has since decided to \u003ca href=\"http://www.firstpost.com/tech/aakash-controversy-datawind-blames-iit-rajasthan-for-failure-267080.html\">press ahead \u003c/a>with a new version with improved specifications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet the overwhelming interest in what was supposed to be a first run of 100,000 tablets has spurred the growth of a handful of new education-focused competitors. They’ve developed tablets that are more expensive, but apparently more capable: the US$100 \u003ca href=\"http://www.telecomtiger.com/Corporate_fullstory.aspx?passfrom=breakingnews&storyid=13565§ion=S162\">ATab\u003c/a>, US$150 \u003ca href=\"http://businesstoday.intoday.in/story/micromax-funbook-india-price-features-hcl-metab-u1/1/23825.html\">HCL MeTab,\u003c/a> \u003c!--more-->and, perhaps most interesting, the US$125 \u003ca href=\"http://m.ibnlive.com/news/micromax-launches-rs-65k-funbook-android-tablet/245430-11.html\">Funbook\u003c/a> – interesting in that manufacturer Micromax’s education content partner for the Funbook is the international educational publishing giant Pearson. All of these relatively inexpensive devices run on Android.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another international initiative of note: One Laptop Per Child’s XO-3, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/01/a-100-solar-powered-tablet-will-this-be-the-one/\">a projected $100 tablet\u003c/a>, due this year, with prototypes shown at January’s Consumer Electronics Show. Designed for students in developing countries, it has OLPC’s now-signature hand crank (for when regular power isn’t available) and it, too, runs on Android (or OLPC’s own Sugar OS).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>INTERNATIONAL GROWTH\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No matter how cheap, having hardware isn’t enough if there isn’t a market. Yet as rapidly as U.S. education appears to be moving toward tablets in a decentralized manner, in pockets here and there, other countries’ education officials are embracing them in bulk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thailand’s Ministry of Education has announced \u003ca href=\"http://www.nationmultimedia.com/national/Tablets-are-Coming-Tablets-are-Coming-30175708.html\">plans to provide tablets\u003c/a> for all of its first-grade students – 900,000 of them. As part of its Digital Education Revolution program, Australia has provided every 9th-through-12th grade student with either a laptop or a tablet this year – and due to purchases of lower-cost tablets, the number of devices actually \u003ca href=\"http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/education/school-computers-soon-to-outnumber-students/story-fn59nlz9-1226272169466\">outnumber students\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And though \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/in-south-korean-classrooms-digital-textbook-revolution-meets-some-resistance/2012/03/21/gIQAxiNGYS_story.html\">doubts have been expressed \u003c/a>about providing tablets for the youngest grades, South Korea is still moving ahead with plans to replace K-12 textbooks with tablets starting in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of where in the world they're deployed, tablets present key issues that must be dealt with: Settling on appropriate educational content for a full curriculum, whether to attach a keyboard, and the ideal tablet screen size.

But the nation's recent economic troubles and the transition to digital books are creating major difficulties for these public institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, the American Library Association released its annual \u003ca href=\"http://www.ala.org/news/mediapresscenter/americaslibraries/soal2012\">State of America's Libraries Report\u003c/a>, and many of its findings were grim. \"Public libraries continue to be battered by a national economy whose recovery from the Great Recession is proving to be sluggish at best,\" the report concluded. Twenty-three of the 49 chief officers of state libraries surveyed indicated that their library systems faced budget cuts over the past two years. \"For three years in a row, more than 40 percent of participating states have reported decreased public library funding,\" the report states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While library budget cuts continue, demand for library services has soared. Lower income and unemployed patrons often turn to local libraries as their only source of Internet access.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>\"It will take a few years for the dust to settle.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>At the same time, libraries have sought to accommodate Americans' ever-increasing demand for access to digital materials, a mission that has put them at odds with the publishing industry, which is struggling to retain its viability as many American readers shift toward reading books electronically and purchasing those titles from online retailers rather than traditional bookstores.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In the end, it will be a matter of leadership and vision that will guide libraries through the current conditions,\" said Jorge Martinez, director of Information Systems for the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, which supports libraries through grants.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>SPARRING OVER E-BOOKS\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>One of the biggest challenges libraries face in this new digital age is the friction in their relationship with publishers, caused largely by the advent of e-books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Publishers argue that borrowing a printed book from a library requires a patron to physically visit the building and then return a few weeks later to bring it back, which is more difficult than \u003c!--more-->purchasing it from an online retailer. When libraries allow patrons to download e-books through one click on a website, the convenience factor that might drive a reader to purchase a book is eliminated. Penguin Group recently blocked Kindle owners from the ability to download library e-books directly from their devices -- now they must transfer the e-book from the library site to a computer, and then to a Kindle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just as printed books wear out after a lot of use, some publishers require libraries to re-purchase the electronic version of popular books after a certain number of patrons view it. HarperCollins allows each copy of its e-books to be loaned up to 26 times, which a recent press release from the American Library Association described as \"arbitrary.\" The libraries then must buy the book again at a lower price.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simon & Schuster, Macmillan, and Penguin do not sell e-book versions of their titles to libraries, while Hachette refuses to sell its newest e-books to libraries. Although many small presses allow unlimited e-book access to libraries, Random House is the only one of the \"Big Six\" publishers to do so -- and it recently increased its prices significantly, \"by 100-200% in March 2012,\" according to the ALA's new report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most e-books come with embedded software that creates restrictions on how they can be used, such as allowing only one library patron to borrow each copy at a time. However, on April 25, Tor/Forge Books, an imprint of Macmillan that specializes in science fiction and other genres, announced that its entire catalog of books will be offered without DRM (digital rights management) software by July.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003c/h3>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>READ MORE:\u003c/h5>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2011/11/the-public-library-completely-reimagined/\">The Public Library, Completely Reimagined\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/01/the-public-library-as-an-incubator-for-the-arts/\">Library Becomes as an Incubator for the Arts\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2011/12/books-and-band-saws-the-future-of-libraries/\">Books and Bandsaws: the Future of Libraries\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"Library organizations are intimately involved in the ongoing discussions about digital rights management systems and some of the copyright issues associated with e-books,\" said Michael Crandall, senior lecturer and chair of the Master of Science in Information Management Program at the University of Washington's Information School. \"This is an area that will continue to evolve as the market becomes more widespread, since it impacts the way people use and share their books with each other and the way libraries are able to purchase and lend e-books.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knight's Martinez said, \"It will take a few years for the dust to settle. Laws and contracts always seem to lag behind new technological innovations. But, it will get settled. Librarians, library service organizations, and others are engaged in trying to make sure the eventual terms and conditions for the use of digital books are ones that are fair to all involved.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the moment, however, nothing is settled, as two industries with their backs against the wall struggle to reach a compromise.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>E-READER PETTING ZOOS, DIGITAL BOOKMOBILES\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Despite libraries' impasse with publishers over restricted e-book use, many are forging ahead in the digital realm, offering patrons new services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the ALA's recent report, \"The proportion of U.S. libraries that made e-books available almost doubled over the past five years, climbing from 38.3 percent in 2007 to 67.2 percent in 2011.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Samantha Becker, the research project manager of the \u003ca href=\"http://tascha.washington.edu/usimpact/\">U.S. IMPACT Study at the University of Washington's Information School\u003c/a>, noted, \"The technology environment in libraries has provided a wonderful opportunity to preserve collections and enhance access to them through digitization, which many libraries are doing with out-of-print and local collections or digital artifacts. The Washington Rural Heritage project is a wonderful example.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonruralheritage.com/cdm/\">That project\u003c/a> allows users to search and access digital versions of material from libraries, heritage organizations, and private collections throughout the state of Washington. The Denver Public Library's Western History Department offers a \u003ca href=\"http://digital.denverlibrary.org/cdm/\">similar resource for photographs\u003c/a>, documents, and other materials related to the American West.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>THE DIGITAL DIVIDE\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>A recent Pew Research Center report uncovered a digital divide in the use of e-books. People less likely to use e-books include Hispanics, those without a high school diploma, the unemployed, rural Americans, and those with household incomes of less than $30,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Without libraries, the division would be even greater, since for many people they serve as the only access point for digital information and services,\" Crandall said. \"\u003ca href=\"http://tascha.uw.edu/usimpact/us-public-library-study.html\">Our study of library computer use\u003c/a> found that for 22 percent of library computer users (age 14 and older), the library was their only source for access to computers and the Internet. This would suggest that similar restricted access would apply to e-books without libraries in the mix.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martinez noted that libraries are finding creative ways to meet demand despite budget challenges. \"In Philadelphia they are placing equipment and trainers in community organizations to make these valuable services available to their patrons at these sites, even when their regular locations are closed due to budget cutbacks,\" he said. \"In other places, they have recreated the old bookmobile as mobile digital centers that take training, computers and Internet access to parts of their communities where there are no [library] buildings.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/04/13/2747039/beyond-books-check-out-your-public.html\">recent Op-Ed\u003c/a> put out by the Knight, Gates, and MacArthur foundations cited several other innovative uses of library resources:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Bookmobiles have been supplemented by mobile computer labs -- visiting minority communities in St. Paul to teach digital literacy classes in Spanish, Hmong, and Somali, for example. In Dover, Mass., the library has installed QR codes around town that link signs at the market and playground to community information and services. Seattle Public Library offers live chats with librarians 24 hours a day getting answers to reference questions and live homework help.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>It also mentioned an initiative at the main Chicago library called YOUmedia that \"lets any teen with a city library card have in-house access to computers plus video and audio recording equipment to create their own content with the help of a mentor. At another YOUmedia space in Miami, workshops help teens think critically and creatively about their lives, by teaching them to publish an autobiographical digital story, or to visualize their favorite books.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becker said that libraries are working hard to provide access to e-reading materials, as well as helping patrons enter into the e-reading marketplace by exposing them to e-reading devices through lending and device \"petting zoos,\" and by helping them learn to use new devices in classes and one-on-one sessions with librarians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crandall said his study found that two-thirds of the library computer users asked a librarian for help in using the technology. \"The ability to use the new technology may seem intuitive to many,\" he said, \"but clearly for many others it is not, and having a community resource that is able to help people understand how to use digital technology and information, and why they might want to use it to improve the quality of their lives is something that libraries have taken on as a transformation of their traditional mission.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martinez said the Knight Foundation's library funding will focus on \"innovative projects and leaders that help to show what the library of tomorrow should be.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mission and responsibilities of libraries may be in flux due to Americans' ever-increasing use of digital information sources, but Becker points out that it's the same as it ever was: \"Libraries have long been at the front lines of providing people with access to new formats for reading and new technology, whether when switching from scrolls to the familiar book format, to newer trends in e-reading.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Jenny Shank is the author of the novel \"The Ringer\" (The Permanent Press, 2011), a finalist for the \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/mRhXT4\">Reading the West Book Awards\u003c/a>.

But the nation's recent economic troubles and the transition to digital books are creating major difficulties for these public institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, the American Library Association released its annual \u003ca href=\"http://www.ala.org/news/mediapresscenter/americaslibraries/soal2012\">State of America's Libraries Report\u003c/a>, and many of its findings were grim. \"Public libraries continue to be battered by a national economy whose recovery from the Great Recession is proving to be sluggish at best,\" the report concluded. Twenty-three of the 49 chief officers of state libraries surveyed indicated that their library systems faced budget cuts over the past two years. \"For three years in a row, more than 40 percent of participating states have reported decreased public library funding,\" the report states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While library budget cuts continue, demand for library services has soared. Lower income and unemployed patrons often turn to local libraries as their only source of Internet access.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003cp>\"It will take a few years for the dust to settle.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>At the same time, libraries have sought to accommodate Americans' ever-increasing demand for access to digital materials, a mission that has put them at odds with the publishing industry, which is struggling to retain its viability as many American readers shift toward reading books electronically and purchasing those titles from online retailers rather than traditional bookstores.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In the end, it will be a matter of leadership and vision that will guide libraries through the current conditions,\" said Jorge Martinez, director of Information Systems for the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, which supports libraries through grants.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>SPARRING OVER E-BOOKS\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>One of the biggest challenges libraries face in this new digital age is the friction in their relationship with publishers, caused largely by the advent of e-books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Publishers argue that borrowing a printed book from a library requires a patron to physically visit the building and then return a few weeks later to bring it back, which is more difficult than \u003c!--more-->purchasing it from an online retailer. When libraries allow patrons to download e-books through one click on a website, the convenience factor that might drive a reader to purchase a book is eliminated. Penguin Group recently blocked Kindle owners from the ability to download library e-books directly from their devices -- now they must transfer the e-book from the library site to a computer, and then to a Kindle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just as printed books wear out after a lot of use, some publishers require libraries to re-purchase the electronic version of popular books after a certain number of patrons view it. HarperCollins allows each copy of its e-books to be loaned up to 26 times, which a recent press release from the American Library Association described as \"arbitrary.\" The libraries then must buy the book again at a lower price.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simon & Schuster, Macmillan, and Penguin do not sell e-book versions of their titles to libraries, while Hachette refuses to sell its newest e-books to libraries. Although many small presses allow unlimited e-book access to libraries, Random House is the only one of the \"Big Six\" publishers to do so -- and it recently increased its prices significantly, \"by 100-200% in March 2012,\" according to the ALA's new report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most e-books come with embedded software that creates restrictions on how they can be used, such as allowing only one library patron to borrow each copy at a time. However, on April 25, Tor/Forge Books, an imprint of Macmillan that specializes in science fiction and other genres, announced that its entire catalog of books will be offered without DRM (digital rights management) software by July.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003c/h3>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>READ MORE:\u003c/h5>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2011/11/the-public-library-completely-reimagined/\">The Public Library, Completely Reimagined\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2012/01/the-public-library-as-an-incubator-for-the-arts/\">Library Becomes as an Incubator for the Arts\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2011/12/books-and-band-saws-the-future-of-libraries/\">Books and Bandsaws: the Future of Libraries\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"Library organizations are intimately involved in the ongoing discussions about digital rights management systems and some of the copyright issues associated with e-books,\" said Michael Crandall, senior lecturer and chair of the Master of Science in Information Management Program at the University of Washington's Information School. \"This is an area that will continue to evolve as the market becomes more widespread, since it impacts the way people use and share their books with each other and the way libraries are able to purchase and lend e-books.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Knight's Martinez said, \"It will take a few years for the dust to settle. Laws and contracts always seem to lag behind new technological innovations. But, it will get settled. Librarians, library service organizations, and others are engaged in trying to make sure the eventual terms and conditions for the use of digital books are ones that are fair to all involved.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the moment, however, nothing is settled, as two industries with their backs against the wall struggle to reach a compromise.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>E-READER PETTING ZOOS, DIGITAL BOOKMOBILES\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>Despite libraries' impasse with publishers over restricted e-book use, many are forging ahead in the digital realm, offering patrons new services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the ALA's recent report, \"The proportion of U.S. libraries that made e-books available almost doubled over the past five years, climbing from 38.3 percent in 2007 to 67.2 percent in 2011.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Samantha Becker, the research project manager of the \u003ca href=\"http://tascha.washington.edu/usimpact/\">U.S. IMPACT Study at the University of Washington's Information School\u003c/a>, noted, \"The technology environment in libraries has provided a wonderful opportunity to preserve collections and enhance access to them through digitization, which many libraries are doing with out-of-print and local collections or digital artifacts. The Washington Rural Heritage project is a wonderful example.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonruralheritage.com/cdm/\">That project\u003c/a> allows users to search and access digital versions of material from libraries, heritage organizations, and private collections throughout the state of Washington. The Denver Public Library's Western History Department offers a \u003ca href=\"http://digital.denverlibrary.org/cdm/\">similar resource for photographs\u003c/a>, documents, and other materials related to the American West.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch4>THE DIGITAL DIVIDE\u003c/h4>\n\u003cp>A recent Pew Research Center report uncovered a digital divide in the use of e-books. People less likely to use e-books include Hispanics, those without a high school diploma, the unemployed, rural Americans, and those with household incomes of less than $30,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Without libraries, the division would be even greater, since for many people they serve as the only access point for digital information and services,\" Crandall said. \"\u003ca href=\"http://tascha.uw.edu/usimpact/us-public-library-study.html\">Our study of library computer use\u003c/a> found that for 22 percent of library computer users (age 14 and older), the library was their only source for access to computers and the Internet. This would suggest that similar restricted access would apply to e-books without libraries in the mix.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martinez noted that libraries are finding creative ways to meet demand despite budget challenges. \"In Philadelphia they are placing equipment and trainers in community organizations to make these valuable services available to their patrons at these sites, even when their regular locations are closed due to budget cutbacks,\" he said. \"In other places, they have recreated the old bookmobile as mobile digital centers that take training, computers and Internet access to parts of their communities where there are no [library] buildings.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/04/13/2747039/beyond-books-check-out-your-public.html\">recent Op-Ed\u003c/a> put out by the Knight, Gates, and MacArthur foundations cited several other innovative uses of library resources:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"Bookmobiles have been supplemented by mobile computer labs -- visiting minority communities in St. Paul to teach digital literacy classes in Spanish, Hmong, and Somali, for example. In Dover, Mass., the library has installed QR codes around town that link signs at the market and playground to community information and services. Seattle Public Library offers live chats with librarians 24 hours a day getting answers to reference questions and live homework help.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>It also mentioned an initiative at the main Chicago library called YOUmedia that \"lets any teen with a city library card have in-house access to computers plus video and audio recording equipment to create their own content with the help of a mentor. At another YOUmedia space in Miami, workshops help teens think critically and creatively about their lives, by teaching them to publish an autobiographical digital story, or to visualize their favorite books.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becker said that libraries are working hard to provide access to e-reading materials, as well as helping patrons enter into the e-reading marketplace by exposing them to e-reading devices through lending and device \"petting zoos,\" and by helping them learn to use new devices in classes and one-on-one sessions with librarians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crandall said his study found that two-thirds of the library computer users asked a librarian for help in using the technology. \"The ability to use the new technology may seem intuitive to many,\" he said, \"but clearly for many others it is not, and having a community resource that is able to help people understand how to use digital technology and information, and why they might want to use it to improve the quality of their lives is something that libraries have taken on as a transformation of their traditional mission.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martinez said the Knight Foundation's library funding will focus on \"innovative projects and leaders that help to show what the library of tomorrow should be.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mission and responsibilities of libraries may be in flux due to Americans' ever-increasing use of digital information sources, but Becker points out that it's the same as it ever was: \"Libraries have long been at the front lines of providing people with access to new formats for reading and new technology, whether when switching from scrolls to the familiar book format, to newer trends in e-reading.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Jenny Shank is the author of the novel \"The Ringer\" (The Permanent Press, 2011), a finalist for the \u003ca href=\"http://bit.ly/mRhXT4\">Reading the West Book Awards\u003c/a>.

But one aspect of media use with kids that's worth examining closer is how co-viewing affects their experience. Whether kids are watching TV, creating digital media, reading, searching, or playing video games with parents, siblings or friends, consuming media becomes a different kind of experience than when it's done alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though TV is still the dominant media in most homes, other forms are quickly permeating daily life: video games, apps, and exploring the Internet are woven into most families' activities. The Joan Ganz Cooney Center calls it joint media engagement (JME), and they've just released one of their comprehensive reports, \u003ca href=\"http://www.joanganzcooneycenter.org/Reports-32.html\">The New CoViewing: Designing for Learning Through Joint Media Engagement\u003c/a>, about the phenomenon and its effects.

E-books can be read on Web sites, computer software, products like LeapFrog, and of course tablets and e-readers. And depending on whom you ask, e-books (or print books) are the medium of choice for reading together. The typically tech-cautious \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/21/business/for-their-children-many-e-book-readers-insist-on-paper.html\">New York Times decided that\u003c/a> \"for their children, many e-book fans insist on paper.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Cooney Center's own \"quick study,\" which followed 24 families with kids three- to six-years old reading both print and e-books, showed that most kids preferred reading an e-book to a print book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.digitalbookworld.com/2012/for-reading-and-learning-kids-prefer-e-books-to-print-books/\">according to Digital Book World\u003c/a>.

In turn, parents can have a better understanding of what their kids are doing and learning and what they're involved with during their kids' media use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And for a lot of parents, this kind of interaction is important.\u003ca href=\"http://eprints.lse.ac.uk/25723/\"> A recent national survey showed\u003c/a> that two-thirds of nearly 1,000 parents of 12- to 17-year-olds said they talked regularly with their kids \u003c!--more-->about their Internet use, and almost half of them participated in their kids' use of computers.

Older parents, on the other hand, tend to use parental controls more. \"Younger parents are willing to confront media and the unknown with their kids, whereas older parents aren’t.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rule of thumb also applies to video games. Parents who grew up playing games themselves tended to play more with their kids than restrict it, \u003ca href=\"http://ejc.sagepub.com/content/22/3/315.abstract\">according to a 2007 study\u003c/a>.

Children watching and playing together also affects the experience. For those families who can afford it, an iPod Touch is now as common place a toy as Monopoly used to be for the previous generation. Though some worry, and rightly so, about kids withdrawing from the social lives around them as they launch birds or slash fruit on their iPod Touches, observing two kids with their own device in the same room reveals something different -- at least in my experience. Kids talk each other through their challenges, helping each other master levels, offering tips, cheering each other on. It's a form of parallel play, in a way.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\"Younger parents are willing to confront media and the unknown with their kids, whereas older parents aren’t.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The same goes for video games. \u003ca href=\"http://ejc.sagepub.com/content/22/3/315.abstract\">A report about parents' interest in video games\u003c/a> shows that kids end up learning a lot from each other and become empowered through sharing. “Collaborative interactions around video game play are good learning environments [in] that ‘in-room’ interaction provides opportunities for sociality, joint projects, and empowerment through sharing one’s knowledge and seeing it used for concrete success by others,” write the authors of the study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And when it comes to TV, kids who watch together respond to prompts (from Elmo or Dora the Explorer, for example), than those watching alone. Kids also imitate each others' responses and coordinate their actions to respond at the same time. They elaborate on each others' responses and talk to each other about what's going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another great example of this was found with research from the \u003ca href=\"http://dmlcentral.net/projects/3684\">Digital Youth Project\u003c/a>, where authors of the Macarthur Foundation study found that kids hanging out with each other, watching movies or TV, playing videos together or listening to music, were more actively participating in what they were doing.

But let's face it, even if they had the time, for the most part, parents and kids don't necessarily enjoy the same media.

But one aspect of media use with kids that's worth examining closer is how co-viewing affects their experience. Whether kids are watching TV, creating digital media, reading, searching, or playing video games with parents, siblings or friends, consuming media becomes a different kind of experience than when it's done alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though TV is still the dominant media in most homes, other forms are quickly permeating daily life: video games, apps, and exploring the Internet are woven into most families' activities. The Joan Ganz Cooney Center calls it joint media engagement (JME), and they've just released one of their comprehensive reports, \u003ca href=\"http://www.joanganzcooneycenter.org/Reports-32.html\">The New CoViewing: Designing for Learning Through Joint Media Engagement\u003c/a>, about the phenomenon and its effects. The theory goes that the better we understand how kids use media together, the better designed the media can be, to take the most advantage of how kids work, learn, think, and make things together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u003cstrong>HOW PARENTS RELATE\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps the activity that parents love most to do with their kids -- reading -- has been vastly transformed by digital media. E-books can be read on Web sites, computer software, products like LeapFrog, and of course tablets and e-readers. And depending on whom you ask, e-books (or print books) are the medium of choice for reading together. The typically tech-cautious \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/11/21/business/for-their-children-many-e-book-readers-insist-on-paper.html\">New York Times decided that\u003c/a> \"for their children, many e-book fans insist on paper.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Cooney Center's own \"quick study,\" which followed 24 families with kids three- to six-years old reading both print and e-books, showed that most kids preferred reading an e-book to a print book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.digitalbookworld.com/2012/for-reading-and-learning-kids-prefer-e-books-to-print-books/\">according to Digital Book World\u003c/a>. And maybe just as importantly, \"comprehension between the two formats were the same,\" though the enhanced e-readers with all the bells and whistles were distracting to young readers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, “If we can encourage kids to engage in books through an iPad, that’s a win already,” \u003ca href=\"http://www.digitalbookworld.com/2012/for-reading-and-learning-kids-prefer-e-books-to-print-books/\">said\u003c/a> the Cooney Center's Carly Shuler.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">Raise your hand if you've discreetly texted your friends or shopped on your mobile phone undercover while watching \"Cars 2\" with your kids.\u003c/span>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Plenty of studies have shown that kids learn more when they're consuming media alongside their parents -- parents typically chime in and explain what's going on or answer questions or share their opinions about what they're seeing, hearing, and doing. In turn, parents can have a better understanding of what their kids are doing and learning and what they're involved with during their kids' media use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And for a lot of parents, this kind of interaction is important.\u003ca href=\"http://eprints.lse.ac.uk/25723/\"> A recent national survey showed\u003c/a> that two-thirds of nearly 1,000 parents of 12- to 17-year-olds said they talked regularly with their kids \u003c!--more-->about their Internet use, and almost half of them participated in their kids' use of computers. And those who did, actively set both social rules -- what's appropriate and what's not -- and filtering software that block sites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18363\" class=\"wp-caption left\" style=\"max-width: 313px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-18363\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/wp-content/uploads/sites/23/2012/01/Screen-shot-2012-01-20-at-10.55.53-AM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"313\" height=\"164\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"> \u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Lori Takeuchi, who wrote this report for the Cooney Center along with Reed Stevens, said what parents decide to do with their kids is largely based on their own childhood experiences. Those who grew up on the Internet or were young enough when they started using it in their daily lives have less fear about dangers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They're comfortable with fewer rules,\" Takeuchi said about the families she studied for the \u003ca href=\"joanganzcooneycenter.org/Reports-29.html\">Families Matter Report\u003c/a> she wrote earlier this year. Older parents, on the other hand, tend to use parental controls more. \"Younger parents are willing to confront media and the unknown with their kids, whereas older parents aren’t.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rule of thumb also applies to video games. Parents who grew up playing games themselves tended to play more with their kids than restrict it, \u003ca href=\"http://ejc.sagepub.com/content/22/3/315.abstract\">according to a 2007 study\u003c/a>. And conversely, those who had negative opinions about gaming tended to restrict time spent playing with video games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u003cstrong>KIDS USING MEDIA TOGETHER\u003c/strong>\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents aren't the only big influences in a kid's life when it comes to media. Children watching and playing together also affects the experience. For those families who can afford it, an iPod Touch is now as common place a toy as Monopoly used to be for the previous generation. Though some worry, and rightly so, about kids withdrawing from the social lives around them as they launch birds or slash fruit on their iPod Touches, observing two kids with their own device in the same room reveals something different -- at least in my experience. Kids talk each other through their challenges, helping each other master levels, offering tips, cheering each other on. It's a form of parallel play, in a way.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\"Younger parents are willing to confront media and the unknown with their kids, whereas older parents aren’t.\"\u003c/span>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The same goes for video games. \u003ca href=\"http://ejc.sagepub.com/content/22/3/315.abstract\">A report about parents' interest in video games\u003c/a> shows that kids end up learning a lot from each other and become empowered through sharing. “Collaborative interactions around video game play are good learning environments [in] that ‘in-room’ interaction provides opportunities for sociality, joint projects, and empowerment through sharing one’s knowledge and seeing it used for concrete success by others,” write the authors of the study.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And when it comes to TV, kids who watch together respond to prompts (from Elmo or Dora the Explorer, for example), than those watching alone. Kids also imitate each others' responses and coordinate their actions to respond at the same time. They elaborate on each others' responses and talk to each other about what's going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another great example of this was found with research from the \u003ca href=\"http://dmlcentral.net/projects/3684\">Digital Youth Project\u003c/a>, where authors of the Macarthur Foundation study found that kids hanging out with each other, watching movies or TV, playing videos together or listening to music, were more actively participating in what they were doing. They talked about what they were watching or playing, they worked together on modifying video games, and creating digital media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600\">\u003cstrong>CHALLENGES AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS\u003c/strong>\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ideally, of course, parents could participate in all their kids' media use. But let's face it, even if they had the time, for the most part, parents and kids don't necessarily enjoy the same media. (Raise your hand if you've discreetly texted your friends or shopped on your mobile phone undercover while watching \"Cars 2\" with your kids.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other challenges: Parents don't always know what kids need to learn and how to help them find it.
