Physical Vs. Ebooks In The Workplace

Bookaxis looks at the rise, fall and rebirth of the physical book in the modern professional workplace

2012-08-19

BIRMINGHAM, UK, August 19, 2012 (Press-News.org) A recent study from UCLA suggests printed textbook learning is more successful at focusing the mind than the Ebook counterpart, which can affect learning concentration and information retention. Despite a noticeable shift towards Ebooks in recent years, the continuing prevalence of printed books in the professional sector highlights that there is still a need for printed books as an educational and informative resource.

Director of marketing at Computer Bookshops Limited - Paul Savill, gives an insight into why printed books have remained a fundamental aspect of training and development, and how retailers are continuing to evolve their offering to meet supply and demand.

"One of the key functions of bookaxis is to ensure that professionals and academics can easily access the most current, relevant texts at low prices, in one place, and at one time."

bookaxis is the latest development from industry renowned Computer Bookshops Limited who have been specialising in technical, computing and professional texts for over 20 years.

"The printed book industry had suffered greatly with the prevalence of IT, Ebook and Smart-phone/App software solutions. What the industry is experiencing now however is that physical books, guides and manuals are making a significant comeback."

The durability, usability and familiarity of a physical textbook is something that learners in all sectors appreciate. In tough economic times, buyers demand more for their money and expect longer-lasting training tools.

bookaxis allows customers to buy the books they need, with over 350,000 professional, academic and specialist texts available. Visit bookaxis.com today and welcome the resurgence of the physical book as an effective learning tool.
