The information described below simply provides background information related to an embodiment according to the present invention and does not constitute prior art.

Electronic books (also referred to as “e-books”) come in a variety of formats (e.g. IDPF, EPUB and PDF) and are available on a variety of devices (e.g. dedicated readers and universal mobiles). devices, tablet computers, laptop computers, and desktop computers).

Among various e-book formats, ePUB (Electronic PUBlication) is an e-book format standard developed by IDPF (International Digital Publishing Forum), and is currently positioned as a de facto standard format in the e-book market. According to this trend, many e-books are produced in EPUB format.

Although the E-book market is expanding as the purchase of tablet PCs increases, there is little change in the way of using textbooks. Students still carry heavy textbooks, and these paper-based learning materials are not only heavy to carry, but also affect the carbon footprint of all the infrastructure needed to supply, use and dispose of the materials. If only a few pages in a text are changed, the text becomes obsolete and a new version may be required to be printed.

Attempts to change learning materials are continuously being made, but since the advantages of using paper books for learning purposes are clear, there is still no substitute product for paper learning materials. Students have used their textbooks in a variety of ways. Some underline or color in the text to highlight a particular point of interest, while others jot down notes in the margins or insert sticky notes to remember the explanation of a difficult concept. In addition, some people fold important pages, attach stickers, or tear only necessary contents and carry them around. Due to the clear advantages of these paper books, it was difficult to use learning materials as e-books.

One embodiment of the present invention is to provide a method for utilizing learning materials as an e-book by providing an e-book service including a memo layer.

Hereinafter, embodiments of a method and apparatus for providing an e-book service including a memo layer will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a diagram for explaining a system for providing an e-book service including a memo layer according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , a system for providing an e-book service including a memo layer according to an embodiment may include a server 110, databases 113 and 114, and a client terminal 130.

According to an embodiment, the server 110 is a server device supporting an e-book service and may include an e-book support module 111 and a memo data support module 112 . At this time, the e-book support module 111 may store book data in the textbook database 113 inside or outside the server 110 . Also, the memo data support module 112 may store the memo layer in the memo database 114 inside or outside the server 110 . Here, the memo layer may include memo data created by a user. Although FIG. 1 illustrates one server, client terminal, and database, a plurality of servers, client terminals, and database may be provided.

In this case, the memo layer may include an identifier for book data, and may be classified according to the same book data through the identifier.

According to an embodiment, the e-book service providing device 130 including a memo layer is a tablet PC, a laptop, a smart phone, a portable terminal, or a mobile terminal. Terminal), personal digital assistant (PDA), portable multimedia player (PMP) terminal, personal computer, wearable personal station (WPS) and e-book terminal (e.g., Amazon Kindle, Including Barnes & Noble Nook, Ridi Books Paper, Korea Epub Crema, etc., but not limited thereto, including all e-book terminals), etc. may be included.

According to one embodiment, the book data can be composed of a file with an EPUB-based extension. Basically, EPUB creates an internal article and document structure using XHTML or HTML5, and uses a part of CSS to frame the document. It uses XML for list and tabular form, EPUB metadata, and can be configured by bundling all the contents of an EPUB into a ZIP file.

According to one embodiment, in the case of book data in the EPUB format, since the amount of characters displayed on a page varies for each font size, the user cannot separately control the font size, and regardless of the type or size of the client terminal You can make the same page visible. If resizing is necessary, the problem can be solved by resizing both the book data and the memo layer together.

Therefore, book data includes attribute information including container.xml, style.css, toc.ncx, package.opf, etc., other content related to the content of the body, and additional content such as images, videos, and sound sources included in the content. can be configured.

According to another embodiment, book data is not limited to a file having an EPUB-based extension, and may be implemented in any type of file that implements an electronic book.

According to an embodiment, the memo data may include a book data identifier, a user identifier, a memo image, and memo text, and each memo may include address information for teaching material data.

According to an embodiment, the controller 210 may control the operation of the e-book service providing device 130 including the memo layer to reproduce memo data and voice data stored in the memo layer. For example, if a tutor takes notes while recording how to solve a problem, the commentary memo data and the tutor's voice data are stored in the memo layer, and the student who downloads this memo layer plays the memo layer. By doing so, you can use e-books more effectively.

According to an exemplary embodiment, the controller 210 may divide one screen to simultaneously activate the first book data and the second book data, and control the first part and the second part of one book data to appear simultaneously. can do. In this case, when the first book data and the second book data are simultaneously activated, the first note layer corresponding to the first book data and the second note layer corresponding to the second book data may be respectively activated. For example, when you want to see the commentary at the end of the learning material on one screen, you can activate the problem part and the commentary part on one screen at the same time, and in this case, one memo layer is activated for each part. It can be. For another example, when you want to view Korean textbooks and Korean workbooks on one screen, you can activate both textbooks and workbooks on one screen at the same time. can

According to an embodiment, the flash memory 260 is a device that helps the controller 210 perform calculations, and may play a role of recording a user's memo and an address of textbook data corresponding to the memo.
