                                                   1. Introduction 
1.1 Aim:
           Open Source Education Books is a fun and easy experience for Open
           Source Books . You can be able to find the book quickly and have it
           sent to you as soon as possible. The best online bookstores provide
           this and deliver exceptional customer service, too.


1.2 Preface:
           OSS bookstore gives customers the luxury of finding the books online
           at a more affordable price and there's something for everyone.

           We always care for the customers and we ensure that the customers
           get the money worth.

           Shopping in online bookstores has always been about two things:
Convenience and Selection.

                                           2. Indian Readers 
2.1 BBC News survey
     Indians      are        the   world     biggest
     bookworms, reading on the average of
     10.7 hours per week, twice as long as
     Americans
     Mr Sriram says social changes have
     also made a difference: "Earlier people
     could     turn     to     their   parents   and
     grandparents for advice. Now they turn
     to books."
     Mr Tejpal said: "A good book in India
     will sell only a few thousand copies, but
     in the UK or US it could sell tens of
thousands”.

  Have Online Book Stores Changed The Book World Forever?
          Remember the days when going to the book store meant taking a
    leisurely stroll through the rows with the smell of newly-bound books in
    the air? But what about those people who don't live within ten, fifteen or
    even twenty minutes of a book store? What about those people who don't
    want to deal with the occasionally- rude staff or the irritating lines at the
    counter?. There's more than one reason, online book stores have changed
    the book world forever.
