The study deals with the use of e-book by students of the second year master at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at M’sila University. It aims at identifying the reality of the use of e-book by students by knowing the nature of students' uses of e-book. The students will then explore the technological skills needed to deal with the e-book and finally identify the problems and difficulties encountered in the sample study and stand in the way of achieving wider benefits from the e-book and finding appropriate solutions to those difficulties.
