		Description	Sample Link
	Search:
1.	Search Terms in Results List	Search terms are highlighted in yellow in search results list. To help identify relevance of hit, highlighted terms appear in context with 100 characters before and after the term.	Search results for "Lenin" (Kowalsky, Stalin and the Spanish Civil War): [view]
2.	Search Terms Highlighted in Text	Search terms are highlighted in yellow on the text page. When you click an item in a search-results list, you are taken to the section of text which contains the matched terms. The highlighted terms help you to quickly identify where the search terms appear within the text. (In each instance the next / previous highlighted search term may be accessed by clicking on an arrow link.)	Search terms on text page (Kowalsky, Stalin and the Spanish Civil War): [view]
	Text Chunks:
3.	Text Chunks	The text of each book is broken down and delivered in chunks by chapter, section, or paragraph range, according to the publisher’s request. Delivering only portions of each book at a time to users enables us to track hits for usage and royalty purposes. For future books developed with multiple formats from the outset or born digital, text can be structured with shorter, more modular units which are better suited for online use.	By chapter (Turton, The Syrian princesses): [view] By section (Vandiver, Lethal Punishment): [view] By paragraphs (Palermo, In His Own Right): [view]
	Paragraph Numbering / Page Breaks:
4.	Paragraph Numbering	Paragraphs are numbered sequentially from beginning to end of text. The paragraph-number ranges for each text chunk appear in brackets after each link in the TOC. In the e-book, the paragraph numbers appear in gray to the left of each paragraph. These paragraph numbers will take the place of page numbers in born-digital books and can be used for scholarly citation.	Numbered paragraphs (O’Sullivan, Sumner Welles): [view]
5.	Page Breaks from Print Book	For books also published in print, the page breaks from the print version are included within the text for reference, e.g. [Page 4].	Page breaks (Morrison, The embattled Northeast): [view]
	Notes:
6.	Notes in Pop-up Window	If you click on a note reference number, the note text will appear in a pop-up box. The entire notes section can also be accessed through the TOC or from a link in the note pop-up box.

	Images:
7.	List of Illustrations	The List of Illustrations includes a list of all figures and hyperlinks to where each figure appears within the text.	List of Illustrations (Brown, A field of honor): [view]
8.	Pop-up of Larger Image	If you click on an image within a book, a pop-up window with a larger image appears. Images can appear interspersed within the text or in a separate section.

9.	Increased Number of Images	Some e-books contain additional images not included in the print book. Many born-digital titles include a large number of color images.	Additional images (Clarke, Trust and power): [view]
10.	Zoomable Image Viewer	The Image Viewer feature allows users to zoom in on and pan across images. The Image Viewer is used in books that contain high-resolution images.	Image Viewer (Frischer, The Horace’s Villa Project): [view]
11.	Color Images	Simple color images appear in JPEG format. High-resolution images can be viewed with the Image Viewer which uses SID compressed files created from high resolution TIFF files.	Color images (Lowengard, The creation of color in eighteenth-century Europe): [view]

18.	External, Image Resources	Images can be linked to external image resources maintained by an author or third party. Linking to images on an external site might be used if an author or institution wants to provide additional resources, such as Luna’s InSight software, or when a third party wishes to maintain high-resolution files on a local server for copyright control and maintenance.
