Which roles do publishers still play

Will the rise of digital call into question the role of traditional publisher?

And what about self-publishing and  self-promotion?

 Lulu, Blurb, TheBookEdition,blogs, forums, social networks?

A brief overview of contemporary publishing

How do we re-legitimize the role of good, real publisher? A challenge to be met

According to Marie-Pierre Sangouard, Director of the book section of Fnac (Paris): “There is no doubt that self-publishing will expand and that we will also see the emergence of new talents and forms of writing. We can also predict that social networks will play an important role in the dissemination of this type of work. But these kinds of publishing and distribution should remain marginal.”

 A technological leap for the profession of publisher  

But what about the psychological leap? Do we stick with our old patterns or break with them? Easy? Difficult 

 That is the question!
