20090298036 | Replacing Physical Publication Appendices With Enhanced Electronic Versions - Embodiments are directed to a system that allows publishers to publish bibliographic data, reference data, and/or author notes of non-fiction materials (e.g. books, journals, etc.) on an Internet web site with a formal structure rather than in paper form. Bibliographic references and author notes are stored in a computer database, and presented to end users through web pages in such a manner that references can be displayed alongside digital images of the physical pages that they originated from, with hypertext links to digital files representing the author's original sources, as appropriate. A method comprises providing a printed component of a book including a page containing a reference to a network site providing access to an electronic component of the book, displaying at least a portion of the electronic component of the book upon user access to the network site, wherein the display includes a portion of the text of the book and one or more links available in that portion, and requesting authentication of the user to provide evidence of authorized use of the book. | 12-03-2009 |
