…and will be read in the specialized digital libraries
Audiovisual ‒ Weights more, better to read in the cloud ‒ Is read on the go (mobiles, several readers) ‒ Updated very often
Move to digital libraries Interactive
‒ Within similar interest groups ‒ Special services for those readers (i.e. sign-off in compliance procedures)
Move to specialized digital libraries

Readers will prefer subscription to purchasing
• It's less expensive for the reader; no need to pay full price: ‒ Universities and companies can monitor use and expense ‒ Lower trading cost (no need to know and consider each title) ‒ More choice and freedom for the reader
• The value in legal and business libraries is in:
‒ The search system within a complete database ‒ Constant updating
• Specialized digital libraries offer:
‒ Related content other than books (reports, newsletters, statistics) ‒ Flexibility depending on user type (download or cloud-reading) ‒ Easy interaction with similar users ‒ Offers of related products for each subject and reader level ‒ Specific value-added features
![Page 13: Business content publishing Trends and new tendencies](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051610/54889c14b47959d80c8b5721/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Subscription model is also better for the publisher
• Reduces piracy, especially if no downloading is involved
• It helps discoverability ‒ Discovery paths, similar readers’ choices and others
‒ Publicists to focuse on making the book more useful, closer to readers needs
• Allows the publisher to better know the readers: ‒ What they like, what they don't understand…
‒ If available, products with further value added can be offered
• Provides more stable and higher net income: ‒ Depending on readership and not sales, the front / back-list relationship
fluctuates less
‒ Reduces the dependence from proprietary readers and oligopolists
‒ Reducing publishers’ sales costs and obtaining additional income entails greater benefits for the publisher, while still less expensive to readers

Turmoil in the publishing industry
Nothing compared to what is coming! “Everything changes except the exponential rate of change”
Marcelino Elosua
Up to now: ‒ Print books in digital formats ‒ Virtual bookstores Essentially we still produce and sell books
In the next five years: 1. Audiovisual content, not just words, a big change in editing 2. All-you-can-eat libraries, more than just buying or current hybrid models
of paying when you read 10% of a book 3. The “book” is an invitation to navigate through many resources in a given
order We have seen a change in the distribution side of publishing, now we’ll enjoy a change in publishing itself. Get ready!

New author - publisher relationships
• The forward thinking publishers should offer a consolidated approach to communications, incorporating books, digital, journals, online learning and speaker slots, with a targeted PR strategy individually tailored to author requirements and therefore achieving production synergies
• Achieve services with greater added value for both
• International projection, export of local talent and support in each country
• Author and publisher choose each other, not on a book-by-book basis, but for a global and long-term relationship
![Page 41: Business content publishing Trends and new tendencies](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051610/54889c14b47959d80c8b5721/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
