Abstract

As the Director of the Institute for the Future of the Book, Bob Stein has been involved with several endeavors to create a technological solution that will meet the evolving needs of information dissemination in the digital age. His experiences working with Encyclopedia Britannica and later creating an interactive media company, The Voyager Company, have led him in this direction. This talk seeks to raise questions about how books are evolving, what the end product should be, and who is responsible for getting them there.
