If there is the capability, you can even have fun and embed them. Here's a couple of things I've played with:

(An ebook I created from Project Gutenberg and placed into Issuu)

and

http://www.galileo.aur.it/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?bib=20627
(a movie from Google Video)

I don't know if I like this or not, but when people see them, they think it's pretty cool. It's the way some of these APIs and similar methods to make mashups can function. You can still do the full-screen view and everything.

Subject: [Koha] ebooks in Koha 3.0

Does anyone have any ebooks they are currently using in Koha?  We are looking at purchasing some from Follett and would like to know if we need to set up anything special or make any changes to Koha to have them come up properly?  I've been able to download a demo ebook from Follett and it seemed to import fine and come up fine in the catalog but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything

Any help or feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,
Marie
