Book or e-book? – How to choose from RootStories publications

Reading family histories is a special experience, so it matters how we encounter them. RootStories publications are available in both physical book and e-book formats, so everyone can find the solution that suits them best.

A printed book has a tangible value. Many people regard it as a family heirloom that has a place on the shelf and can be passed down from generation to generation. Leafing through a physical volume, with its combination of images and text, offers a special, slower reading experience.

E-books, on the other hand, represent flexibility. They can be accessed from anywhere, easily shared with family members, and are ideal for those who live abroad or want quick access. They are especially practical when relatives living on different continents want to read the same story at the same time.

Many people choose a combination of the two: they keep the printed book as a memento and use the e-book for everyday reading. RootStories' packages reflect this approach, ensuring that stories are accessible and preservable in all forms.
