Wiley Aims For Intelligent Digital Content
That's what's going on right now. We're trying to work in structured toolsets and also in the file formats where you can go from one format to the other easily without much rework.
How are you formatting content so that it easily transitions from one channel to another?
Wiley has it's own XML markup. We call it WileyML, and it is the basis for a lot of the ebooks that we produce but we're also starting to do more and more ebooks using EPUB 3 and HTML5 modules. We are moving towards the open standards in terms of ebooks but we're also, in the cases that we need to, taking an open standard ebook and adding additional functionality to optimize the experience in a particular channel.
