Read History Page Interactive Tag Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current electronic book readers' read history pages lack sufficient information to help users quickly locate books of interest, as they only display book covers, titles, and whether a book has been added to the shelf, without distinct interactive information.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that retrieve and display presentation tags based on interactive information, such as access channels and reading status, to provide users with more historical interactive data, facilitating the identification of books of interest on the read history page.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If only book covers, titles, and shelf information are displayed on the read history page, then the page layout remains simple and easy to maintain, but users cannot quickly locate books of interest due to insufficient information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments book information into multiple dimensions: basic information (cover, title), interactive information (access channel, reading status, reading frequency), and presentation tags. This segmentation allows the system to selectively display different types of information based on user needs without overwhelming the interface, resolving the contradiction between providing comprehensive information and maintaining simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a new dimension of interaction by introducing presentation tags that categorize books based on multiple attributes (access channel, reading status, reading frequency). This transforms the flat one-dimensional display into a multi-dimensional information space, enabling users to quickly locate books of interest while keeping the interface structured and manageable.
2Productivity
If comprehensive interactive information is displayed for each book, then users can quickly locate books of interest, but the read history page becomes cluttered and harder to navigate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts key interactive information attributes (access channel, reading status, reading frequency) and synthesizes them into concise presentation tags. This extraction process selects only the most relevant information for quick book location while filtering out redundant details, thereby maintaining page navigation ease without sacrificing book location efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms multiple interactive information parameters into a simplified presentation tag parameter. Instead of displaying separate fields for access channel, reading status, and reading frequency, the system changes the parameter representation to a single integrated tag that conveys the essential characteristics, improving both book location efficiency and page navigability.
3Loss of information
If presentation tags based on interactive information are added to the read history page, then more historical interactive information is provided to users, but the data processing and retrieval complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by pre-calculating and storing presentation tags based on interactive information during the book reading process. Instead of computing complex interactions in real-time when users access the read history page, the system prepares the synthesized tags in advance, reducing data processing complexity at query time while preserving comprehensive historical interactive information.

AI summary
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for presenting book information. The method includes: retrieving, in response to a user's access request for a read history page, book basic information corresponding to first books, each first book being a book historically read by the user; retrieving presentation tags corresponding to respective first books, wherein the presentation tags are determined based on interactive information of respective first books; and displaying, on the read history page, the book basic information and the presentation tags corresponding to the first books.
