Worldwide E-Books Market Size & Forecast Report, 2009-2012
"Whether it’s the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end is likely a matter of semantics as it increasingly appears all the elements are finally in place for e-books to begin transforming their parent industry, not unlike other industries have already been transformed by digital content."
-Ned May, VP & Lead Analyst
Using ROI to Support the IM Value Proposition
"When it comes to information management, Outsell’s experience shows that executives and funders have a pretty straightforward question: what do I get for my money?...Against this backdrop, IM costs are big line items on highly-scrutinized budgets … and content costs are rising."
-Roger Strouse, Vice President & Lead Analyst
The Future of the Textbook Marketplace
"The textbook market is in danger of following the example set by newspapers, another market beset by cyclical and structural change that saw its fortunes drop 19% in 2009 alone, all by factors evolving and forecasted for more than five years prior to that. We believe that this scenario is repeatable in the textbook marketplace, although the slow pace of change in teaching and purchasing practises might make the speed of this structural change less dramatic than it has been for newspapers."
-Kate Worlock, Director & Lead Analyst
