Abstract
A software interface to increase the efficiency for reading, abstracting of information and locating material within an electron publication, pursuant to which author content and/or researcher content may be quickly searched, accessed and stored on an academic tool utilizing e-book technology. Topic mapping tools may be further used to enhance searching to link and cross reference terminology. For example, such tools are described in ISO/IEC 13250:2000 and more recently extended into XML format in XTM specifications. W3C® standards, such as DAML+OIL and topic map standards as well as functionally similar standards may also be utilized.
