==An Anatomy of a Book Viewer==
 
*Mohammed Abuouda, Bibliotheca Alexandrina, mohammed.abuouda@bibalex.org
 
Bibliotheca Alexandria (BA) hosts 210,000 digital books in different languages available at http://dar.bibalex.org. It includes the largest collection of digitized Arabic books. Using open source tools, BA has developed a modular book viewer that can be deployed in any environment to provide the users with a great personalized reading experience. BA’s book viewer provides several services that make this possible: morphological search in different languages, localization, server load balancing, scalability and image processing. Personalization features includes different types of annotation such as sticky notes, highlighting and underlining. It also provides the ability to embed the viewer in any webpage and change its skin.
 
In this talk we will describe the book viewer architecture, its modular design and how to incorporate it in your current environment.
