Everywhere we turn there are articles, stories, and presentations on the changing world of publishing. The Kindle, the digital revolution, people reading on their iPhones, Google Book Search — what does it all mean for publishers and writers? Despite all the new technology, print books are still what many people want to read. How can we produce the best books at the lowest cost? What's the best way to market those books using traditional techniques as well as today's technology?
Join experts at this year's Regional Publishing University, co-sponsored by IBPA, the Independent Book Publishing Association (formerly PMA), and Midwest Independent Publishers Association (MIPA). Lively discussions and presentations will include IBPA board members from Publishers Weekly, Ingram, National Book Network (NBN) and others, as well as Midwest publishing industry leaders and entrepreneurs. There will also be plenty of opportunities for one-on-one discussions and brainstorming ideas for the future.
Be a part of this dialogue on publishing matters because, well, publishing matters!
