Abstract
An interface for making information available to a user provides a display similar to a printed book or magazine. In order to 'turn the page' of the displayed book, the user touches the screen with his hand or a pointing device, and moves it across the screen. Movement across the screen, while touching the screen, causes an animated turning of the page of the displayed printed material. This page turning technique is very similar to the turning of a page with an actual book or magazine.
