Digitize your eBooks with KITABOO’s interactive eBook software

As digital technologies and platforms gain ground and become the primary source of all communication and information dissemination it is natural that digital publishers progress with the times and digitize their books using interactive eBook software.

What is book digitization?

Book digitization is the process of converting print books, manuscripts, and records into electronic format. As the online medium becomes the primary platform for consuming content, there is a pressing need for publishers to convert their libraries into digital formats. The format for digitized eBooks helps reduce the file size of the eBooks and allows easy search of internet-based keywords. Besides, it also allows for reformatting by third-party applications. As a digital publisher, you would have a huge library of books to digitize. The manual process would be cumbersome and the solution is to use an eBook interactive software.

Why is it important to digitize books?

Gain a wider audience: It goes without saying that print books continue to retain their charm in the face of the onslaught of electronic media. However, the online platform has its share of loyal readers with many people, especially, the younger audience preferring to read their eBooks on their mobile devices, tablets, and laptops. By digitizing your eBooks using an eBook interactive software, you can thus, gain access to a wider audience.

Eliminate warehousing costs: The print books require plenty of space so you have to invest in a warehouse to store them. By digitizing your eBooks, you can eliminate the costs associated with space, rent, and offsite storage. With interactive eBook software, you can also bring to life your damaged physical books and make them readable for your audience.

Easily edit and create additional copies: Once you have created an eBook using interactive eBook software, you can easily edit and modify content to create new editions at minimal time and cost. In the case of a physical book, this would involve going through the entire process of printing the books through a process that is both time-consuming and expensive. 

Future-proof books against damage: With digital books, you can also future-proof your manuscripts from any kind of damage, loss, and theft. Besides, your readers don’t have to travel to your physical store to make a purchase; rather, they can order and immediately receive digital copies from your online store anytime and from anywhere.

This being said, given the huge volume of content to be digitized, you would need to use interactive eBook software for the conversion. This software allows you to add interactive elements to your physical books, allowing your audience to interact with the content rather than just passively absorb information. For example, KITABOO, the interactive eBook software by Hurix Digital is widely used by millions of reputed digital publishers to digitize their eBooks on a large scale.
