Full description

Using BUKU, you’ll be able to access a vast library of study-related books anywhere and anytime. Not only can you read the books prescribed by your study institution, but any book that may hold your interest; be it within or outside of your primary field of studies.. The information you need can be found easily and quickly. The advanced search function allows you to search for information in one book, or throughout all books present in BUKU. This way, you’ll study faster and more accurately. BUKU allows you to make notes and mark sentences or paragraphs easily. All these personal notes are stored and kept in BUKU, so you’ll be able to go through relevant notes later, when that tricky test is almost due. You can also create your own booklists, and share them with others. The BUKU app is fully synchronised with the website. If you read a book at home on your laptop or desktop computer, you’ll be able to continue reading on your phone or tablet right where you left off; no need to find the page or chapter where you stopped. Notes and reading lists, too, are shared amongst all platforms. Do you prefer to listen rather than read? Or would you like to study on the go, while you do your dishes? BUKU has an audio feature that lets you listen to books rather than read them. This way, you can learn while doing other stuff. BUKU, in short, is far more than a paper book: it is an educative environment. Are you ready for the new way of studying? Download the app now, and immediately get access to an array of free books!
