(Ideally the reference book should be an app in and of itself and not a book in a reader app.)

I thought of using another reader with just my reference book loaded but I haven't found one that has a fast enough search. (A certain search in iBooks took 32 seconds while the same search in Stanza took less than 2 seconds! I do a lot of searches in this reference book so fast searching is a must.)

Two copies of an app on one device... is it possible?

(btw... I
yes it is possible. i am having two copies of kindle on my ipad. detailed instructions are here-
