Hybrid Readers a solution to the endangered unique bond between book and reader

Hi everyone,
While researching resources for my essay for the course, I came across an 'illuminating' article that expands on the idea of ownership in a digital age and the "concrete relationship with the material". 

Though the article is 5 years old the content is still relevant today as it explores the ways in which 

publishing companies attempt to retain book readers through extra content in an attempt to add bells and whistles to the e-reading experience "in an age of flattened text". 

I appreciate the way Hybrid Readers is finding new and innovative ways to engage e-readers with physical print material.

Hope you're all having a wonderful long weekend!
