Publishers' Outlook 2011
BB: Do you anticipate more integrated print/digital offerings in 2011, or will the trend be toward replacing print with digital?
Rothberg: We will continue to offer the vast majority of our books in both print and digital formats. And now, with the growth of tablet and color e-readers, we look forward to expanding our catalog of digital offerings to include illustrated children's books. Certain titles, like enhanced e-books that have integrated video, obviously can only be offered digitally, but at the moment that is a small number of titles. ... [These titles also are] offered in print and as standard e-books: "Nixonland" by Rick Perlstein, "The Kennedy Detail" by Gerald Blaine and Lisa McCubbin, and "You: Raising a Child" by Michael F. Roizen and Mehmet C. Oz are the best examples.
