The company is hoping to distinguish itself from incumbents like Amazon by allowing users to access books from a broad range of sites using multiple devices.
Google says its new service—called Google Editions—will allow users to buy digital copies of books they discover through its book-search service.

Google has yet to release details about pricing and which publishers are expected to participate.
