The Major Functions Performed By the Book Publishers

Book publishing seems to be a daunting task at the beginning. But when you get experienced you need to perform many roles as a book publisher. Today in this article we are going to discuss the main functions performed by a publisher. Here we go:-
  • the selection of the works;
  • the improvement of the works through editing;
  • The production of the book object through a series of technical operations ranging from layout and proofreading to the creation of the cover, to printing. The same process is also present in the case of ebooks;
  • the acquisition of the ISBN code in order to transform a printed book into a book marketable in bookstores;
  • the fulfillment of tax obligations with the application of VAT at 4% and the favorable tax regime for publishing with VAT paid at source, in order to allow the book to be marketed in bookstores and in any case the fulfillment of at least the obligations VAT relating to the circulation of the book itself;
  • Book distribution: the book must be introduced into the distribution system so that it can be found by readers. This function also includes the management of economic relations with distributors and libraries and the accreditation of the author or copyright;
  • The promotion of the book.
We do not consider the undertaking of business risk linked to the publication of the single book to be included among the functions of the publisher. On the web, in the vibrant controversy against Paid Publishing, an often-mentioned argument is a fact that paid are exempt from a function that should be typical of publishers, namely the undertaking of business risk.
The fact that the risk of the publication of a book is reduced or eliminated, given that the production costs are fully or partially paid in various forms by the author, should make it lose all the titles of the publisher.
