Over the past few years presses have dramatically changed the ways that we create and sell our products—from establishing XML workflows and expanding e-book production and sales to taking on multimedia and digital projects and working with consortia. With restricted resources, this has meant that many press employees have experienced dramatic shifts in their responsibilities, as well as who they work with both inside and outside the press. For some presses, entirely new positions have been created in order to develop and steer new digital initiatives, while at other presses the tasks have been divided amongst existing staff. This panel will examine both strategies, offering insights, practical advice and, we hope, humor, as we discuss the perils encountered in adapting to transformations in the workplace.
Chair: Alan Harvey, Deputy Director and Editor-in-Chief, Stanford University Press
