Venice, Florida, 18 January 2004
21st Century Research, a market research firm, investigated the Print-on-Demand publishing industry during the last 20 months to evaluate its impact on new authors and writers who are trying to publish their works.
Traditional agents and publishers routinely reject up to 98% of all submisions. They tend to select only books written by well established authors that can sell several thousand copies.
Print-on-Demand(POD) is a new book publishing concept based on digital printing technology. Once a manuscript is in electronic form it is possible to print and bind a very small quantity of books -even one- at an economic price and deliver it anywhere in the world.
During the last few years numerous POD firms have come into being offering their services directly to authors and writers at a very low cost. 21st Century Research compiled a directory of over 50 POD services in Australia, Canada, Israel, Mexico, USA and the UK. It provides a means for locating and evaluating these services. Entries include addresses, telephones, faxes and web sites.
Authors can use this directory to compare POD services and their contracts to find one best suited to their needs. They can look for non-exclusive contracts, negotiable royalties, keep their TV, film and audio rights, determine speed of service and specific book prices.
