An electronic book can be paginated by reference to a print version of the same book. Pages of the print version are scanned to obtain text strings and page labels corresponding to each of the pages. The text strings are then compared to the electronic book to find the best matching positions within the electronic book. The matching positions within the electronic book are then associated with the page numbers of the pages from which the matching text strings were obtained. Autocorrelation can be used to determine matching positions.

The electronic reader of claim 1, wherein presenting the first page label concurrently with the first portion of the content comprises presenting the first page label in at least one of a header or a footer presented on the display concurrently with the first portion of the content. 3. The electronic reader of claim 1, wherein the data object includes at least two different types of page labels from the print version, wherein a first type of the page labels of the at least two different types of page labels comprises Arabic numerals, and a second type of the page labels of the at least two different types of page labels comprises symbols different from Arabic numerals. 4. The electronic reader of claim 1, wherein the positions of the respective portions of content are expressed within the data object as at least one of: a number of bytes from a reference point of the electronic version;a number of characters from the reference point of the electronic version; ora number of words from the reference point of the electronic version. 5. A method comprising: presenting, by a computing device, on a display, a first portion of content of an electronic version of a content item;determining a first position in the electronic version with which the first portion of content is associated;receiving a data object that indicates associations between page labels from a print version of the content item and positions of respective portions of content in the electronic version;determining, from the data object, based at least in part on the first position, a first page label from the print version that is associated with the first position;presenting the first page label concurrently with the first portion of content;receiving a selection of a second portion of content of the electronic version as a selected portion;generating a textual citation corresponding to the selected portion;determining, from the data object, based at least in part on a second position associated with the selected portion, a second page label associated with the selected portion; andpresenting the textual citation associated with selected portion, the textual citation including the second page label. 6. The method as recited in claim 5, further comprising: receiving, by the computing device, the electronic version; andwherein the data object is separate from the content of the electronic version. 7. The method as recited in claim 5, further comprising receiving, by the computing device, the electronic version, wherein at least some of the page labels from the print version are included in the content of the electronic version as at least a portion of the data object. 8.
