Applications of Internet Publishing
October 13, 2003
At the request of Mark Cummings, VP and Publisher at Scholastic Library Publishing, I was a guest lecturer at a class he is teaching at NYU, Principles and Applications of Publishing on the Internet. The class has been delving into some real nuts and bolts—how a reference publisher, for example, goes about digitizing and structuring their content for effective publishing on the Web.
It was interesting to speak to a group of graduate students, some of whom are already working in the field and some of whom hope to. As I said to them, I spend so much time speaking with other technical people in the field, I am guilty of speaking too much in the jargon of the industry.
They are using The Columbia Guide to Digital Publishing as a text. Mark Walter and I co-wrote the chapter on content management.
If you would like to see the slide presentation from the NYU talk, you can download it here. My thanks to reader Brian Casey for taking the PowerPoint and creating the PDF.
