So where are we?
Content structured linearly
Movement from ‘Creamy’ to ‘Chunky’
□ Journals content is “better”
□ Books/Textbooks all inclusive monoliths
□ Chapters, abstracts, metadata, keywords, etc
The customer wants it their way
Other content industries do it: Music, TV, etc.
Technology has enabled the transition
![Page 5: Rethinking and Remixing Content: Society of Scholarly Publishers Panel 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554246c4b4c9050a608b45e8/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What are the challenges (any surprises)?
Reliance on the ‘document’
Under investment in metadata
Sclerotic internal processes
What is the “strategic” value of content?
Allocation of resources, time and money

Strategic Content Planning
Programmatic, strategic evaluation
Format vs document
Review
□ Processes, relationships, technology, etc
Evaluate your content
□ Who does what?
□ What do your customers want?

Engage and learn

In the end we all try to “COPE”
![Page 9: Rethinking and Remixing Content: Society of Scholarly Publishers Panel 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554246c4b4c9050a608b45e8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What do we do?
75% of our business is repeat businessserving our customers is the key to our business
![Page 10: Rethinking and Remixing Content: Society of Scholarly Publishers Panel 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062418/554246c4b4c9050a608b45e8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Strategic challenges should be opportunities
Custom and disaggregated content distribution models are inevitable so how will you benefit?
Permissions revenues considered incremental will become your primary revenue source
Your content platform will be the basis for broad distribution
Must improve metadata at the ‘unit’ level
Offer your own custom publishing solution
Link content across library: Leverage the principles of cross and upselling

Help me…What should tell them at HQ?
Make the content less dependent on an output format
□ Chunking content while maintaining a web of interrelationships across the content
□ Can we actively involve authors in the process?
Establish templates that support flexible content:
□ Book>Chapter>Image>Diagram
□ Description>Abstract>Key words>Concepts
Learn by example – There’s nothing wrong with borrowing
Engage the customer: Content everywhere – so how do we deliver it?
