Earlier we reported that Apple is planning to hold a media event on Tuesday, October 23. Now The Next Web reports that this event will have a heavy focus on iBooks, since smaller tablets are generally used to consume content including books and movies.

In what will likely be completely unsurprising news to many, we’ve now heard from multiple sources that Apple’s as-yet-unannounced iPad mini event will have a strong focus on iBooks. Since an iPad mini would likely be squarely aimed at those who wish to partake of media on their tablets, that would make a lot of sense.

Apple executive Eddy Cue ones said that he “found email, books, Facebook and video very compelling” on a 7-inch Samsung Galaxy tablet. Apple will most likely focus on similar uses for the iPad Mini.
