Abstract
Electronic books offer creative possibilities for expanding access as well as
changing learning behavior and academic research. Content can always be
accessible, regardless of time or place, to be read on PCs or on portable book
readers. Books need never go out of print, and new editions can be easily
created. One can carry several titles at once on a portable reader and, over
time, build a personal library.
Professional Publishing in the Digital Age: E-Books in Libraries
examines how libraries are turning to e-books to strike a balance between
patrons' demands for openness and convenience and publishers' needs for
financial self-sustainability.
Features such as full text searching, changeable font size, mark-up, citation
creation, and note taking are enhancing usability. Print text can be
integrated with multi-dimensional objects, sound, and film to create a whole
new kind of monographic work.
The report examines questions such as:
- What happens to e-book usage when barriers to inconvenience are removed?
- When patrons can have easy access to scholarly e-books, what does their
usage look like and what does this predict for the future of these types of
resources?
- Are these innovative models more or less fiscally sound than their
traditional counterparts?
- What will make e-books a viable part of academic library collections?
- What features, rights, business models, hardware and software standards
are needed to meet the goals of large academic library systems to support open
scholarly exchange?
In addition, the report will include sections on the following:
- Academic institutions' experiences with e-books and their thoughts about
the future of e-books.
- Discussion of the pros and cons of e-books from a librarian' s perspective
- Comparative analysis of library e-book use by budget size
- Comparison of e-book sales vs. print sales - sales cannibalization or
reinforcement?
- Estimate of professional e-book sales to libraries worldwide
- Projected growth of e-book sales to libraries through 2015
- Popularity of e-books by subjects: Social Sciences and Humanities,
Scientific and Technical, Medical, Law and Business
- Means of securing access and protecting copyright
- Profiles of e-book platforms such as Questia, netLibrary and Ebrary
Simba' s Professional Publishing market figures are global in scope. It' s a
global market. If you' re competing in one or all of these segments, the
competition does not conform to lines on a map. This report, and the others in
the series, is produced to help executives make decisions in this environment.
Simba has a knowledge base from almost 20 years worth of perspective on these
markets. A static industry, it' s one that' s affected by rapid changes in
technology, the economy, mergers, partnerships, public policy and library
budgets, and requires daily attention to understand the trends and project the
market' s direction. As the bedrock of its research collection, you can count
on this attention to be paid by Simba Information' s team of analysts who set
the industry standard on market intelligence for the professional publishing
industry.
Additional Information
Stamford, CT - April 20, 2011 - Although consumer trade books get a
majority of the attention, professional and scholarly books, which include the
legal, scientific/technical, medical and business segments, hold 75.9% of the
$1.76 billion U.S. E-book market. The latest market research report from media
and publishing forecast firm Simba Information, Professional Publishing in
the Digital Age: E-Books in Libraries, predicts library collection
managers will set aside more of their budget for E-books over the next few
years.
The clear advantages E-books offer librarians, including archiving and long
term access, enhancements and features, usage statistics and cost savings, are
pushing professional publishers to continue to work with the library community
to fully develop this market. According to the report, surveyed library
collection managers are expecting e-books to become a more significant share
of publishers' and distributors' offering, with 60% indicating that in five
years e-books will represent 11% or more of their library' s acquisition budget.
"The professional market is unlike the trade book and education market;
professionals need to be able to access content that is searchable and
streamlined into their workflow," notes Dan Strempel, senior analyst at Simba
Information and author of the study. "Librarians understand these needs, which
can only be serviced on an electronic platform."
The current mindset of professional publishers is to replicate the print
version of a book, which is creating challenges in the adoption of e-books,
including the use of format standards like EPUB and establishing acceptable
digital rights management.
"Some of the challenges are arising from disagreements between the publishers
and the librarians: 69% of surveyed librarians had a negative opinion of
digital rights management, specifically the limited length of access and no
allowance for interlibrary loans," added Strempel. "However, it should be
noted that most librarians are acquiring their e-books through third party
vendors or aggregators and not directly through publishers."
Professional Publishing in the Digital Age: E-Books in Libraries
provides an overview and financial outlook for e-books in the professional
market defined by four key segments: legal, scientific/technical, medical and
business. The report also discusses advantages, challenges, pricing models,
usage, and platform providers, and analyzes e-book categories, major e-book
publishers and e-book technologies.
