BioMed Central publishes manuscripts in ePUB format

The eReader and eBook market has seen rapid growth in recent years with high profile launches of devices such as the Nook, Kobo and Apple iPad, and eBook stores such as iBooks. It’s clear that readers increasingly want to be able to view content on different devices to facilitate easier and more mobile access to content.

BioMed Central is therefore pleased to announce that we now publish manuscripts in ePUB format. This device-neutral format allows readers to view articles on any eReader. ePUB is designed for reflowable content, meaning that an eReader can optimize text for a particular display device. ePUB also supports fixed-layout content.

Our first ePUB files are now available in the Journal of Neuroinflammation. You can view the ePUB files on your eReader, or through freely available software such as Adobe Digital Editions.
