What does this mean for learning and the future of learning content publishing? What is being done to exploit, innovate and implement eReader solutions in the enterprise? What are the challenges - IT, legal and usability - associated with eReaders? When and how might we stop using print materials and shift to fully digital publications for our learning programs? Hear from panelists who have first-hand experience using eReaders for learning in their organizations.
