Tell us your thoughts on the growing offerings in digital books and textbooks. Do you like the idea of having your books on a Phone, Tablet or other device? What might be the drawbacks? What percentage of textbooks do you think will be digital 10 years from now? Do you think you’d read more if you had access to e-books? How do you think e-books will change studying and learning?

I think that having you books on a electronic device is a good thing.  It will help us always have our textbooks while taking the load off our backs.  We will be able to avoid carrying the books back and forth. Also we can use it help us with our homework.  Things can become a lot more easier if everyone had electronic devices with our textbooks.
10 years from now all textbooks will be digital.  No one will purchase textbooks that aren't digital.  It would put a strain on your back and it will cost more money.  That's more money out your pocket as to less money and you always have the textbooks with your device.
I think that having e-books will increase learning and studying.  Kids will be more likely to grab the electronic device and do homework and study.  Everyone always uses their devices so it will occur to them that the have to do something that is needed for school.  It will be for the greater good that we have e-books.
