Abstract

The original chapter was published in Communications in Computer and Information Science 2016, 676, pp. 215-227. After publication of the original paper [https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/ 978-3-319-52162-6_21] it came to the authors’ attention that the Chinese translation of question 10: I prefer electronic textbooks over print textbooks, was inverted to read I prefer print textbooks over electronic textbooks. Therefore, Figure 3 and the related discussions on pages 220-221 and 227 were incorrect. (Figure Presented) Electronic textbooks. With more libraries investing in electronic textbooks, it is important to understand our students’ attitudes towards using them. Overall, nearly 69% of the students disagreed with preferring e-textbooks. Figure 3 shows amalgamated results and country percentages for Question 10.
