| Abstract: | To pursue emerging revenue opportunities in the most cost-efficient way (or sometimes to be able to pursue them at all), book
publishers are going to have to adopt a StartwithXML workflow. That means their content needs to live in an XML-structured
document from the earliest possible moment, which could be “inception”, and carry within it metadata about the document structure,
the content itself, and the rights to all components. The tools exist to do this, but the organizational challenges of changing
workflows and inventing new procedures are daunting. This project explores the business case and the implementation challenges,
including case studies of companies who have already begun to work this way. |
