Conclusion Freelancers provide unique resources for publishers. Because of their special expertise, unique viewpoints, and even geographical
location, they provide publishers with customized materials in disciplines and locations where the expense of full-time writers
would not be justifiable. They will continue to be an important factor in the publishing industry.
Publishers will continue to write contracts that allow them to republish articles in all known and future formats. Problems
still exist with articles published before 1995. Publishers will have to decide how they will respond to Tasini, whether that means some version of the PRC or deleting articles. It is hoped that a final agreement between authors and
publishers, according to the decision of the Supreme Court, will result in minimum inconvenience to the research public.
New technology presents many challenges, as well as many opportunities, for freelance writers. As technology evolves, copyright
law must ensure that writers’ incentives to create are nurtured and that they are fairly compensated for their work. Authors
whose work creates value should share in the revenue and opportunities created by those technologies. 相似文献

Summary What will be the future of ONIX? Some argue that wider industry acceptance will lead to increased efficiencies in the transfer
of book data, which will ultimately benefit book sales. ONIX still has to overcome many challenges: its implementation cost
is high, whole-salers and aggregators are still using different spreadsheets and information sources. Furthermore, MS Excel
as an alternative solution is widely available and accepted by the industry. Small publishers need more education and a straightforward
demonstration of ONIX’s return on investment. An outreaching of the helping hand of professional organizations is strongly
suggested to foster the adoption process among small players. It is the role of the AAP and BISG to get their memberships
to think about what is good for all members as a whole throughout the industry. As an organization BISG can recommend, educate,
and promote the standard. It cannot, however, bring pressure or demand organizations use it. Publishers, retailers, and wholesalers
make those decisions for themselves and quite apparently the majority do not yet see the rewards. Market players need to determine
the cost versus benefit and as long as distributors and retailers agree on receiving other formats, ONIX will never take a
strong hold in the marketplace. After all, publishers should compete against each other with good books and not with multiple
computer codes. 相似文献

This paper analyzes how technological change and digitalization in the Spanish publishing sector is challenging existing business models and encouraging publishers to modify their portfolios of products and competencies. A qualitative analysis (case study) of three Spanish publishers is carried out. The practical implications of the research are that digital products and services are still considered secondary to the analog book. On the other hand, the proportion of titles available in digital formats is still small. To all this, the lack of a common dominant design for digital publication is added, which represents an uncertainty for editors, to which must be added the lack of institutional support. For the time being, Spanish publishers are simply selling digital versions of their paper books on digital distribution platforms, trying to minimize risks by betting on positively contrasted works in the traditional paper-based business model. 相似文献

The shift to e-books and digital publishing is challenging the basic models of copyright and contracts that underlie the functioning
of book publishing—a mature business with 500 years of history—making it hard to predict what shape the business will take
in the years to come. This article looks at two of those challenges: first, the tension between a fast-changing technological
marketplace and the standard book contract that locks in book rights for life of copyright; and second, the specific complications
presented by image rights. There are, however, first steps being taken to allow books to make the transition to the digital
marketplace with all their rights information intact and easily accessible, facilitating future transactions between agents,
publishers, and new trading partners. The final section looks at the work begun by the Book Industry Study Group to create
a standardized rights framework for this purpose. 相似文献

This paper was prepared for the International Publishers Association and adopted by its international committee in April 1996.
The paper stresses that the new electronic environment will require mature international standards of copyright protection.
Publishers have concerns over how copyrighted works should be protected and welcome the opportunity to work with libraries
and library associations to consider the uses of digitized formats that will preserve the rights of copyright holders while
ensuring that publishers reach their intended audience.

The way we think about publishing is unduly governed by the nature of the container—the physical book. Although demand for
digital content has grown substantially, publishers continue to treat digital formats as a derived or secondary use. As a
result, context is truncated or excluded, reducing the degree to which content can be discovered and consumed. At the same
time, content abundance places pressure on publishers to find new and more effective ways to market content products. To address
these several challenges, publishers should revise their content workflows to develop and maintain context throughout the
publishing process. 相似文献

‘The answer to the machine is in the machine’ – but what is the answer? At the end of the first decade of the 21st century we are seeing an explosion of rights management issues, as well as the emergence of many products and services that may provide all – or at least some – of the solution for publishers. International standards are also in place. Strong intellectual property protection is the cornerstone of an orderly digital marketplace. That market is for content + rights. Are our rights management practices fit for purpose? In this paper we provide an overview of rights management in publishing at the start of the 21st century, a summary of what is at stake, and an overview of the challenges and opportunities that await publishers. 相似文献

美国现有的版权法律条文不能有效地应对数字出版商们的忧虑.尽管数字作品可以享受和印刷作品同等的版权保护,我们似乎仍然需要新的法律条文和理论来应对数字作品和技术的特殊性质.在面对与数字侵权有关的问题上,美国通过立法、改进美国版权署的职能以及签订国际条约或协定,缓慢开始颁布一些关于数字侵权的条文.数字侵权虽然在庭审中得以应对,但法庭运用的是传统版权概念中的"合理使用"来分析数字侵权.目前,人们只能通过诉讼的方式迫使美国法庭建立一套能充分解决电子侵权的法律体系. 相似文献

This extract from a thesis for Pace University??s M.S. Publishing Program examines the challenges key international markets and emerging international markets face as they try to grow their respective e-book markets. Particular challenges discussed are the availability of digital content and affordability of e-reading devices and yet despite these challenges, international publishers are optimistic that an e-book boom will occur in the next few years that will mirror the success of the US e-book market. 相似文献

Now that e-books and digital devices are active in the marketplace, publishers need to incorporate usability and user experience research and practice in their development process. Interaction design and UX research is well established in technology-driven industries; publishers have much to learn from these experts, for the betterment of their digital product and eventually, broader adoption of e-books by their customers. This article highlights the work and opinions of three UX, research and design practitioners as a first step in launching a tidal exchange of knowledge and ideas. 相似文献

Content developers and publishers are facing a myriad of challenges when it comes to producing content for customers. As the number of platforms, formats, and channels continue to increase, it is important for publishers to get a handle on effectively managing development and do so in a way that is agile and will serve customer needs. This article breaks down how publishers can think print, platform, and product in a way that customers will respond to. 相似文献

For over 200 years copyright law has enabled, and scholars and their publishers have depended on, a state‐granted monopoly, creating ‘artificial scarcity’ to give publishers a period during which they can charge higher prices than the market would otherwise dictate and thus recover their costs, plus (usually) a profit. But today we have instant access to digital works, and easy, worldwide distribution for almost no cost to the reader beyond those of computers, Internet access, and electricity. The monopolistic mechanism of ‘artificial scarcity’ now turns one of the most critical advantages of the digital world into something to be fought tooth and nail. The solution is not stronger and longer copyrights. It more likely will emerge from experimentation to find business models that can fund the creation of works, still a costly undertaking, without sacrificing the digital benefit of almost free distribution to everyone who might desire to access them. 相似文献

Forecasts indicate a growing demand for digital content around the world. Converting to digital content can open up countless new revenue possibilities. Adding alternate channels may be worth consideration, but what are the options and what does it take to utilize them effectively? This article explores the opportunities that potentially exist for publishers with content that may be digitized and distributed to global markets. A brief review of the current marketplace is also incorporated, including current players and trends. Finally, an analysis of some of the potential issues, challenges and pitfalls is presented in context of delving into a new international digital content distribution strategy. 相似文献

Use of full-text databases in electronic and optically published format is being pursued vigorously by major publishers. Reference librarians are using databases published in these alterative formats to print for dissemination of information products by publishers. Introduction of distribution technology for databases in these formats should be easier for reference librarians to introduce to end-users than has been the case with formats other than print for full-text searching of newspaper and periodicals. Bibliographic instruction in the use of databases embedded in these formats have interactive features allowing the publisher to use interactive tutorials to assist the librarian in introducing them to novices in the use of such technology in libraries. This should facilitate their acceptance in reference areas of libraries. Several such systems are described. An examination of the standards governing this technology is discussed. 相似文献

A surprisingly large proportion of publishers believe that their businesses will move over the next five years from the creation,
marketing and distribution of physical products toward the management of rights and royalties. Neither the industry nor individual
publishers are ready for such a transition. Although publishing is and has been a rights business, few publishers methodically
manage the rights that they own or control in ways that fully reflect this. If the future lies in rights management, publishers’
systems will need to develop rapidly to accommodate new demands that this will place on them.

Has the challenge of unauthorized digital reproduction and distribution of copyright works been met by the use of so‐called ‘digital rights management’ (DRM) technology – and what role will DRM play in publishing, including scholarly journal and learned publishing? This article explores the legal and commercial issues surrounding DRM from its analogue origins through to the latest market developments. It argues that the implementation of DRM in other media sectors provides valuable lessons to publishers. Acknowledging the practical challenges that DRM has faced, the article suggests that whilst DRM will offer an answer to ‘the machine', it must form part of a flexible solution that adapts to the requirements of electronic publishing. 相似文献

For publishers and librarians to work well together it will help for publishers have a good idea of the circumstances and challenges currently facing libraries. This includes but is not limited to budget; libraries also struggle with a complex technology environment, quickly changing licensing, pricing and content options, and incomplete adoption of standards by publishers and software vendors. This paper is a short introduction to these issues and includes a brief overview of what publishers can do to help librarians, and what librarians can do to help publishers. 相似文献

Conclusion: What is the future for Digital Publishing? It is very difficult to understand the real value of all the different business models that have been introduced to the market
in this very chaotic and evolving arena. The recent disillusions with the Internet and the “new economy” downturn have also
made the publishing industry very cautious of investing in new business ventures. Many new projects have been suspended or
postponed because they were based only on estimated or assumed online revenues. Meanwhile, very real operating expenses far
exceeded original estimates or start-up budgets while sources of revenues remained elusive.
On a more positive note, inside all the major publishing houses there is a stronger knowledge of the importance of creating
a digital content database. Traditional publishers are learning that their intellectual property and editorial content can
be used for many different products and delivered in many different media. Probably in the next months one of the big strategic
issues will be the integration between the traditional print on paper products as the viable revenue model with all the other
digital media in development. Finally, the questions remains how the market will accept as well as pay for content in different
digital formats? 相似文献
