Digital books are an in-demand future trend in books. One of the technical standards for electronic books, which has potential and which is beginning to be considered in academia and industry is the EPUB (an electronic publication in e-book file format with extension.epub) published by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). Compared to the PDF format, EPUB has a richer, interactive and reflowable content, so it is accessible through a variety of desktop and mobile devices. However, despite its potential, EPUB is still not widely used, especially in Indonesia. Therefore, proposed in this article is a design of an EPUB interactive digital book for engineering education. Test results show that the product is valid and error-free. Students were enthusiastic and highly interested in using the EPUB digital book and its interactive features. © 2018 World Institute for Engineering and Technology Education (WIETE).
