Register Today for the SSP Webinar: So, You Want to Get Out of 
Print:
Strategies and Perspectives from Publishers and Librarians

Tuesday, April 19, 2011, 1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. EDT

The Society for Scholarly Publishing presents a compelling 
webinar that will explore the implications of moving away from a 
print-focused business to an online-only publishing business 
model. From the comfort of your office, you can gain valuable 
information from experienced publishers and librarians who have 
successfully implemented the online-only workflow.

This webinar will draw on the experiences of institutions that 
have adopted e-focused policies and procedures, and will provide 
an outline of the strategy for getting out of print and into an 
electronic-based business.

It is undeniable that publishers must operate in a dual print and 
electronic world; however, many of the policies and procedures 
being utilized continue to center on the processing of print 
material. Although not all types of content can be online, the 
recent trend in e-only is growing significantly. The presenters 
will discuss the challenges that can arise in the movement to 
e-only such as ensuring adequate staffing, provision of necessary 
training, and creation of a robust technological infrastructure.

Consider attending if you want to learn more about: Implications 
for getting out of print;  Logistics of revamping existing 
workflows;  Technological infrastructure needed to support e-only
