ONLINE JOURNALS VD OIDAR

as provided in notification no 02/2018 that supply of online journals and periodical to educational institution are exempt under GST.

however providing ebooks are also considered as OIDAR as per section 2(17).

so whether these are taxable or exempt?
just need a clarification that online journal and ebook are one and same thing
but different aspects!
what to do?
