The Publication Standards Project

The Publication Standards Project

E-reading sucks right now. It’s too hard for regular people to publish their work, the most popular sellers act like monopolists, and readers are caught in the middle of the fight. We know it can be easier to read, share, and preserve books for future generations – but right now it isn’t, and we can’t fix anything without working together.

 

Read the essay. Learn more. Take action. Help our staff behind the scenes. Together, we can make digital publishing easier and fairer.

We work towards:

  • Full support of open publication standards.
  • A digital future for libraries.
  • An end to DRM in all published work.
  • Better tools for the things we make.
