In the Library of the Future, 3

In the Library of the Future, you'll be able to read any book in any size type, in any font. Youll be able to specify different fonts for different types of paragraphs — headings, footnotes, quotes, bibliography — and different colors if you wish. Important text or ideas will be shown highlighted if you're trying to study; if you're short of time, you can switch to the condensed version. You can have the text read aloud to you, with different voices for different characters in a novel or play. If you want, illustrations, photographs or video of the subject you're reading about can be viewed with the text.
