HTML form to choose file only eBooks? {file-type}

I want to create a form using an upload "choose file" option. I would like to limit the files that display to show only .epub files and .mobi when the selecting pop up box on the OS opens. It should display only those type of files.

I got it to work with only images and only audio using the code below but how would I get the select pop up box to only display these two types of ebooks, .mobi and .epub?

Below is the image and audio code that works just fine.

Displays Image only files:

<input id="ImageuploadBtn" type="file" name="fileToUpload" class="upload" accept="image/x-png, image/gif, image/jpeg"/>

Displays Audio only files:

<input id="Mp3uploadBtn" type="file" name="fileToUpload" class="upload" accept="audio/mp3, audio/wav"/>

I believe it would be something like accept="ebook/epub" etc... but that does not work. Thanks for your help.
