Tiivistelmä: | Simon&Schuster is at archiving's leading edge. In 1994, New York publishing giant Simon&Schuster were racing headlong into the digital future when it discovered a major technolgy gap. Clearly, books would continue to be the mainstay of the business. But Chairman Jonathan Newcomb had set an ambitious goal: to generate half of Simon&Schuster revenues from electronic publishing - via CD-ROMs, videodiscs, and the World-Wide Web - by 2000, vs. 25% today. Plus, he saw big opportunities in custom publishing - quickly creating textbook-CD-ROM packages customized for one professor's course, say. |
