By opposition to each of these readers, however, Lector is an extension for Firefox and gives you access to all the browser tools you’re accustomed to, including bookmarks, history, tab-reading and other extensions. More importantly, OpenBerg Lector is fully open-source, which means that * it’s 100% free, with no strings attached * you can check how it works * you can improve it yourself or get someone to improve it for you (us or someone else) * you’ll still be able to read your Lector books in 10 years, on a different machine.
