Gibson Publishing Connections was formed in 2004 when we began to assemble rights and publisher agreements for the Canadian Electronic Library and realized that Canadian publishers were unprepared for this new market.
Since then, we have assisted nearly 100 Canadian publishers to engage with ebook distribution channels such as ebrary, Google, Amazon and Shortcovers; we have delivered royalty revenue of nearly $12 million to these publishers through the Canadian Electronic Library; we have assisted members of the Association of Canadian Publishers, Access Copyright and other copyright owners to digitize and convert over 10,000 titles to various ebook formats.
We are not consultants. We don’t produce forecasts, surveys or management reports.
We provide actual services and common-sense advice to Canadian publishers seeking to enter this market. And through our Introductory Offer, we’ll provide real experience with the tools of the trade.
