With iPads being thinner and lighter than the average textbook, the iBook system is looking like a viable option for students looking to reduce their bulk. The iBooks 2 app has just been released by Apple for use with Apple’s iPads to allow teachers and students alike to utilize a new digital textbook collection. The iBooks system can liberate students across the globe, from bulky, heavy and expensive textbooks with a modern and easy-to-use iPad textbook, that is if schools and publishing houses use the technology. SAIT dean of information and communication technology Rand Ayres said SAIT plans to eventually use the iBooks system to replace traditional textbooks.
