[Athen] [EXT] What's your favorite ePub app?

[Heidi Scher]

Thank you, everyone! I appreciate the information that you've shared. We
use Read&Write on our campus, and typically students are not receiving
ePubs. But one student asked, and I thought it wouldn't hurt to see if
there were any new apps out there that I had not heard of.

I appreciate everyone's time and effort!
