Abstract:
An electronic book system provides interfaces particularly suited to students' use of textbooks. User-controlled content is associated with portions of an electronic book. A study guide corresponding to at least some of the portions with associated user-controlled content is generated. The user can navigate between portions of the study guide and the corresponding portions of the electronic book.
Abstract:
An electronic book system provides interfaces particularly suited to students' use of textbooks. Annotations are displayed and hidden using specific gestures and through selective movement of the reader as sensed by its accelerometer. Motion of the electronic book reader below a threshold speed causes a change in display of user-selected content in a first manner and motion above the threshold speed causes a change of display in a second manner.

Abstract:
An electronic book system provides interfaces particularly suited to students' use of textbooks. A finger press on a touch screen produces a contextual menu with user choices that relate to where the finger was pressed or what the user was recently doing with the book. A student provisionally navigates through a book by a specific gesture which, when it stops, returns the user to the previous position in the book. Annotations are displayed and hidden using specific gestures and through selective movement of the reader as sensed by its accelerometer.
