Publishing space

Volume of publications will continue to grow. Format will become less important than channel: Education (text books, learning materials), Consumer (Amazon/Google/Apple), professional publishing (Pearson, Reed-Elsevier, Thomson Reuters), …

Growth in public learning and research materials but concerns about how to sustain in longer term.

Research and learning materials as social objects. Social will become a major element of all publishing – content will be the basis for learning and social experiences.

Major issues around ‘knowledge enclosure’ through licensing which create interesting policy/service issues for libraries.
