Technology is pushing changes to the book publishing industry at an ever-increasing pace, promising to upend the "business as usual" models and create a wealth of opportunities. TOC--O'Reilly's inaugural Tools of Change for Publishing Conference--will explore, analyze, and strategize ways for publishers to keep pace with new-generation innovations and anticipate industry changes on the horizon. TOC takes place June 18-20 at the Fairmont Hotel inSan Jose , California
Concentrating on issues affecting the book publishing community, the TOC program is being crafted to facilitate thought leadership for those looking to lead their companies and projects into the new era of publishing. TOC provides a forum for all participants--both established, traditional publishers as well as the up-and-comers--to contribute and raise awareness of the issues. We've gathered a stellar group of speakers from every corner of the book publishing world, who will deliver enlightening keynotes, informative and idea-sparking sessions, and useful tutorials throughout three jam-packed days.
