Changes in book publishing
Book production has gone through its own shifts with the introduction of digitally produced on-demand books through Web-enabled business models. This new production model was primarily driven by online distribution from companies like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, which created an illusion that hid the minimal production times required to print books as needed/ordered. It has also facilitated shorter book runs, as well as the “book of one” concept, allowing for a new level of book customization. Since much of the book publishers’ profits were determined by their ability to manage print runs and inventory, many publishers viewed digital book production as the Holy Grail.
