Making Information Pay for Higher Ed



Book Industry Study Group's Making Information Pay for Higher Education offers new insights into the unfolding digital transformation in higher education publishing.  With new results from Student Attitudes Toward Content in Higher Education, BISG's ongoing survey of content preference and use trends, and perspectives from industry leaders on content, platforms, and emerging models, this full-day conference is packed with value for senior managers in publishing technology and operations, marketing, strategy, and content development; retailers; and those involved in content delivery whether print or digital.  

Co-located with Digital Book World for the first time for even greater reach, and now a robust full-day program, this is a must-attend conference for all those involved in the migration from print to digital in higher education publishing.  To view the sponsors of the event click here.
