Back? [[The Future of Books]]


==Description:==
Traditional books are printed on paper, which can be made from rags, grasses and mainly from wood and timber, and thus the price of paper is directly linked to that of wood. At the moment the price of paper is fairly low and the availability is high. But paper might not always be a commodity product or as cheap and available as it is today. A situation where this happens might be unavoidable and as a result producing anything that has paper as its main resource, like books, will see a decrease in profit. This in turn will most likely force publishers to drive up prices of books making paperless books like eBooks more interesting and profitable.
