The future of Publishing

Whether we like it or not this is a technological age and although many believe that people will not accept such a dramatic transformation in the way books are delivered and read, they may be burying their heads in the sand. Indeed statistics released by the Oebf show that ebook sales are expected to top $10 million in 2003, having grown by 40% in 2002.

In Japan Sony have just launched 'The Librie', the first ebook reader that uses 'E Ink' technology. E ink provides an electronic display that looks like and works like paper. Once the words form on the page they stay there without power until the reader 'turns over'! This technology will revolutionise the way books are read; within a decade or so paper books will become a curiosity rather than the norm!

ebooks are here to stay and will continue to take a greater and greater share of the published book market - a bold statement perhaps, but while older generations may be reluctant to accept the change at first, the young won't - they will embrace it, just like every other change that technology has introduced.

Think back a decade or two

Who would have believed that just about every person in the developed world would have his own cell-phone?
When we struggled to come to terms with that first PC with its 1mb RAM, a processor speed of 20Khz & its clumsy DOS software, did any of us realise that within 15 years nearly every home would have its own multimedia PC with 512mb RAM, 2Ghz processing speed and a huge range of sophisticated business and home entertainment software? - That we would all be corresponding by e-mail, watching digital films, listening to music played from compressed audio files, shopping on line, banking on-line - that our collective knowledge would be accessed through the power of search engines rather than leather bound encyclopedias.

So ask yourself again, but turn the question around - Can I afford not to get into e-publishing? If the answer is 'No', maybe we can help.
