Content in Context Conference Addresses Evolving Educational Publishing Industry
Extra: What are the biggest challenges facing educational publishers today?
Gaynor: Clearly, the impact of technology on publishing is the single greatest challenge facing the entire publishing industry: XML-type production, online delivery, digital asset management and intellectual property protection systems. … How to incorporate these revolutionary technologies into the print publishing model is enough to keep most publishers up at night. In the education arena, it's particularly tricky because publishers must gauge the pace of change in schools and anticipate the impact on the market of educational technology itself as well as of public policy, demographics and the economy, to name just a few. Figuring out when and where to invest in change is an ongoing challenge for educational publishers.
