As publishing businesses get more competitive, these publishers are often called upon to not only manage the editorial process but also don many hats – those of the marketer, salesman and inventory manager, among others. The panel will look at their publishing processes, author-publisher relations, their infrastructure, and adaptation of professional standards in their work.
