E-books in 2013 - Trends and Models Blog Directory of the University of Tel - Aviv
What is the trend in consumption of e-books? What are the models and trends outlined. Working on this my lecture at the information in 2013 as part of a seminar led by Shlomit Perry dealt with e-books. Issue was also covered in the newspaper
The use of e-books is on the rise. According to the report valle inclan of the AAP - Association of American Publishers released in April 2013 and was based on data from almost 2000 publishers of books - close to 23% of the profits negotiations "sea in 2012 originated from sales of e-books. Throughout the years there has been a trend steady increase in profit publishers that segment of the market - from 0.05% to 2002% to 0.50 at 2006, 3.17% in 2009 - 16.98% by 2011 and 22.55% on 2012 - an increase of 6.2% within a year.
These figures do not include self-publishing books. Studies indicate that this market share of e-books on the rise. According to a report by Bowker Market Research on October 2012 increased by 129 percent in 2011 relative to 2010 in this market of electronic books.
Survey in December 2012 conducted valle inclan by Pew Research Center U.S. supports these findings. According to this survey, which included 2252 subjects aged 16 and above there has been an increase in use ebooks and decrease the consumption of print books. Multiple consumers of e-books among Americans aged 16 and older increased during 2012 from - 16% to 23%. parallel decrease in the consumption of printed books from 72% to 67%. transition to electronic books involves an increase in maintenance of electronic readers. few have e-readers such as KINDLE, NOOK and tablet rose from 18% at the end 2011 to 33% by 2012.
Additional information on Simba Information published in April 2013 also support this trend. Simba Information follows the e-book market since 2009 and publishes the data on Trade E-Book Publishing. According to the 2013 edition of this publication. Number of users in the U.S. electronic books exceed valle inclan 50 million adults.
Drexel University has opened a new library in June 2012 without books with rows of computers and Cornell University recently announced a similar initiative. valle inclan On January 14, 2013 declared its intention to open a public library in San Antonio first build in the first place without books. The library covers an area of 464 square meters equipped on 100 borrowed electronic readers, electronic readers 50 children, 50 computer workstations, 25 laptops, 25 tablet PCs to use the library. Could lend e-readers valle inclan bring books for two weeks or personal devices. Both Public Library New - York is planning a future with fewer books.
Accelerating technological developments that led to the phenomenon of e-books have also led to the development of a new procurement model that fits electronic books - model - PDA - Patron driven acquisitions model its name - the user's practical use is driving the purchase and it was all done behind the scenes.
In the print when books have often to out of print directories feared that the books will not be available when they will demand in the future valle inclan by the books next in publishing, so traditional model that cells never the print, but created a gap in waste between procurement and demand for books.
Although there is an initial screening mechanism books are not sent to the library, but the books super information displayed in the library valle inclan catalog. User searches the catalog and when it comes to interesting posts, and when it comes to e-book immediate access to, the price is determined by a series of "triggers" according to time hold / use of student books - Purchase of the book, question or short term rent. According to this model library should purchase books only if the amount of use that justifies valle inclan under the agreement. Eventually the number of copies purchased by the library valle inclan and the price she pays is determined by the amount of annual usage hours
The model is Reorientation of library materials ratio - a library which is based on the principle of access rather than acquisition, titles in this demand they had not acquired. Since a lot of titles in academic libraries loan as little or no loan at all, model the PDA saves in the library, the collection more suitable for used and allows a greater supply of titles.
In the early days of the model was structurally collection reservations about the wisdom of crowds but today services the PDA applied valle inclan carefully in terms of budget and guided by the same rules of traditional Cbshitot approval and that solved quality issues and budgeting. ..
It turns out that the publishers can be hired from the model. Extensive research at Cornell University's Library and Publishing at JOHNS HOPKINS tested this model in the context of scientific communication. Report published on 26 September 2012 illumine and data on the number of academic library, but it was written primarily from the point of The publisher's view, especially with the universities and business central question publisher These steps can be taken to make the model a lucrative business model PDA and optimistic conclusions .. which was proposed to implement the model in a bookstore in the library catalog with the option of paying the library on any purchase of Title and that everyone would benefit - users, publishers and librarians. Market data on the PDA optimistic.
Recently we have seen a new model of developing open access to academic valle inclan books such as - DOAB - a new platform launched valle inclan on 12 April 2012 and aims to centralize open access to academic books. This guide is a service valle inclan of the Foundation OAPEN - an international initiative for publishing the open access monographs domiciled in the National Library in The Hague.
Another milestone in the field of open access books can also be seen in - PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE OPEN MONOGRAPH PRESS - open source software platform that comes help of the university presses, scholarly associations, and academic mussels to publish books
