He remains, as far as I know, the leading American expert on the topic, having dealt with it in his work at various publishers since 1994 ... Every publisher, indeed everyone in the larger electronic publishing sphere, needs to keep a close eye on this topic as it evolves, and Bill Rosenblatt is who I’d recommend you turn to first."
