Abstract

We examine the properties and use of paper in everyday settings and discuss the motivation for retaining paper as an information medium. In particular, we consider the use of paper maps and guidebooks by tourists during city visits as an example of a mobile and collaborative environment. We then go on to present recent developments in technologies for digital paper and how they can be used to seamlessly integrate digital and printed information.
