For many online readers you simply can’t beat the convenience and clarity of reading e-books in EPUB form (i.e. “electronic publication”). EPUB literature adjusts nicely to any screen size or device, but if you want to read EPUBs in your browser, you’ll need an extension to open their distinct files. Here are a few extensions to help turn your browser into an awesome digital bookshelf.
EPUBReader
Extremely popular and easy to use, EPUBReader can take care of all your e-reading needs in one extension.
Whenever you encounter a website that offers EPUB, the extension automatically loads the ebook for you.
Access features by clicking EPUBReader’s toolbar icon, which launches a hub for all your EPUB activity. Here you’ll find all of your saved EPUB files (plus a portal for discovering new, free ebooks), as well as manage your layout settings like text font, size, colors, backgrounds, and more.
EPUBReader also works very well in tandem with…
