Smashword's Mark Coker Pushes For Community Publishing Initiatives at Libraries



Mark Coker, the founder/CEO of self-publishing community Smashwords, is pushing libraries to offer self-publishing programs to library patrons.

He explained his reasoning on the company’s blog:

Libraries are uniquely qualified to orchestrate community resources and talent to help local writers become professional self-publishers. By holding seminars and classes, and by bringing local authors together face to face with readers and aspiring authors, libraries can help unleash the talent locked inside the minds and fingertips of their local community’s writers.
