| Abstract | This paper focuses on E-books, emphasizing both the product and its users. It investigates the user’ s need for this new electronic product as a replacement for traditional paper books. The study presents a process, based on user requirements, for developing guidelines for E-books targeted at commuters, and contributes to our understanding of commuters’ reading preferences and the effects of this new technology on reading practices. Seven factors affecting E-books design are identified and discussed; these guidelines can be categorized into three principles of universal design. Some ideas for E-books design are developed, and finally, a new design based on bamboo slips is proposed. Future research could apply the design to other groups of E-book users based on the concept of Universal Design. |
