Kobo Is Getting Into Publishing

Canadian-based eBook company Kobo is reportedly getting into publishing early next year. Like Amazon before them, the eBook company will cut out the publisher and work as a publisher/retailer that deals directly with authors.

CBC News has more: “Kobo will be offering complete publishing services for authors, including book editing and design. ‘It’s part of the new market and if you expect to be a number 1 player in that market globally it’s table stakes — you have to provide it,’ [Kobo chief Michael] Serbinis told CBC News.”
