Springer launches eBook program

Springer Science+Business Media is launching a new eBook initiative that will allow students and researchers electronic access to more than 10,000 books. Springer unveiled its new eBooks program at the American Library Association's annual conference in New Orleans this week. As part of its eBooks program, Springer has relaunched its online platform, SpringerLink. The site now integrates Springer eBooks with millions of articles from Springer's peer-reviewed journals. This integration gives researchers easy access to book chapters which should lead to more academic citations of Springer's books
