Kenyan Publishing houses are counting losses since most of their e-publications are acquired and shared illegitimately. Since the adoption of E-Libraries by most learning institutions, e-books and e-learning programs have been introduced in most publishing houses, cutting the total number of paper books by almost half. However increased piracy on the e-resources is posing a serious threat on publishing ventures, hence making most publishing houses have an uncertain future.

@SIDIKIMPOLE We enjoyed listening to audio books when we travelled long distances in the car.

Most libraries around here have computers and e-book software installed. You can either read or listen (for the case of audio-books).
