We're the Web's oldest site devoted to general-interest news and views on e-books, dedicated e-readers and other book-capable devices, libraries and related topics. In one form or another--we started as a digital library advocacy site--we go back to the 1990s. We're for techies who love books and book-lovers who love gadgets. TeleRead also cares about relevant social justice issues such as the digital divide. In addition, we've played a prominent role in the e-book standards movement, as an early supporter of ePub, used by such companies as Apple, Sony, Kobo, Barnes & Noble and SmashWords. One of our current causes is the creation of national digital library endowments in the U.S. and elsewhere. David Rothman, our publisher, has also written about the endowment proposal for Education Week, Library Journal and the Chronicle of Philanthropy. For their contribution to the debate on the future of books and publishing, our writers have been given the Number One position and other mentions among "The 12 Publishing Shakers You Should Be Following” by The Independent Publishing Magazine. TeleRead's business model is a mix of ads and clearly labelled sponsored content appropriate for our community. Most of the site by far is traditional editorial.
