Michael Geist, Nov 23, 2018 Michael Geist is up to part five in a landmark series on how the publication industry has been misleading lawmakers about the state of educational publishing in this country. He covers: the legal effect of the 2012 reforms  the wildly exaggerated suggestion of 600 million uncompensated copies each year. the significant decline in book copying as part of coursepack materials the gradual abandonment of print coursepacks in favour of digital course management systems (CMS) the massive education investment in and shift to e-book licensing. I find it interesting that you can create a five-part series based on misrepresentations made by the publishing industry, but I am sadly not surprised. Web: [Direct Link] [This Post]
