Barnes & Noble Introduces Its NOOKstudy Reading Platform

Barnes & Noble has announced its NOOKstudy online reading and study platform for students. The program allows students to manage eBooks and notes all in one place. Since users will be able to access their textbooks, lecture notes, syllabi, slides and images etc all from one place, it should make going to college more relaxing and enjoyable as students won’t have to carry those heavy textbooks around. Other useful features include the ability to read multiple books at once, along with formal lecture notes and slides, as well as create notes. NOOKstudy currently supports both Macs and Windows PCs, and is already being used in several research institutions. In the increasingly competitive eBook market, do you think that NOOKstudy will help Barnes & Noble gain an edge over its rivals?
