  1. DISADVANTAGES:

    * electronic publications can be produced and disseminated very rapidly - once a page of text has been coded with HTML tags it can be published immediately - the book takes much longer to produce and distribute;
    * if correction is necessary, an electronic text can be updated or corrected with the same immediacy, whereas a book must either go through a second edition, or, if the error is caught in time, have an erratum slip inserted;
    * electronic publication can be made collaborative and interactive, involving either several "authors" or authors and readers;

    ADVANTAGES:

    # Only low costs are involved - as opposed to handing in printed copies or the publication with a publishing house.

    # Speedy publication is possible. Your document is immediately accessible through the internet. Time-consuming inter-library loans are no longer necessary. Since your thesis is available internationally, it contributes to a world-wide interconnection of the latest research in your field.

    # Electronic publishing offers various conceivable forms of presentation. Apart from texts, pictures, and graphics it is possible to include audio recordings, videos, animation, simulations, computer programs, etc.

    here is the words regarding to the this topics.
    # as a student who learn about the e-publishing what we can say is it ease us on doing research pertaining to our field which need to up-date the collections of the books or the journal itself.it is for the user who need a reference or doing research through the books or journals.the advantages as we know are e-publishing are easy to use, cost low in time, up-dated materials, and etc.
    #but behind the easy advantages there are some matter need to pay attention to.and it is the disadvantages of using the e-publishing.pertaining to this kind of thing skills and also knowledge on using and to publish the materials are the particular things that need be conquer.so that its sort of some difficult thing for the senior to develop the knowledge in a second.

    so that as a conclusion dosen't matter the fast or in slow mood the information is been serve. both have their own special role in serving the user.so that both are still valuable to use and remarkable for the collector and also to the publisher.

    Our group have discussed about the advantages and disadvantages of e-publishing.The advantages of e-publishing are fast to access,searchable,hyperlinked and the capacity of the storage of the information such as in the e-book is larger than the common books.
    The disadvantages of e-publishing are it is easy for anybody to copy and paste the information in the e-publishing if there is no copyright and if the e-publishing such as e-book is produced in CD-ROM form,we have to store it properly to make sure the cd and the information are well-stored.
