Authors of self-published books are confined by availability of substrate materials and physical size limitations of digital equipment configurations, but are no longer restrained by cost-effective run length requirements or excessive turnaround times. This paper observes that streamlined workflows and digital equipment configurations, without traditional book editing and proofing cycles, present a self-publishing dichotomy. On one hand on-line book publishing allows greater freedom and flexibility for an author to prepare and produce written works of art without restrictions imposed by commercial book publishers and international media corporations. However, self-publishing has raised concerns over editorial quality, censorship and freedom of expression. The display and distribution of self-publishing through soft proofing, virtual abstracts and digital downloads has altered the way we judge a book by its cover. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of International Journal of the Book is the property of Common Ground Research Networks and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
