Docly
http://docly.com/docly/default.asp Think of Docly as Flickr for documents mashed with Writely word processing and Lulu self publishing - plus you get all of the copyright protection and content metrics of Numly Numbers automatically. Docly, the new Web 2.0 self-publishing service from Numly, allows authors to draft documents online using an online word processor. Upon final review of a document, the author may publish their digital work online and share it with others or sell it. Numly Numbers are automatically assigned to published works and embedded into the footer of the document with the appropriate copyright notice and verification of authenticity links. Copyrights supported include: All Rights Reserved, Creative Commons, and Public Domain. Authors also receive a personal web site to show off their published works (docly.com/username). As copies or sales of digital works are authorized by the author, additional Numly Numbers are generated with the licensee information and copyright assigned to buyer. Numly tracks all assignments and traffic destined to derivative or assigned works by simply including the Numly Number in the Docly Document. |

How to Get Published (Professional Papers)
http://tinyurl.com/g62bv How to Get Published (Professional Papers, research,articles) Many librarian authors find that depositing work in online open-access (OA) LIS archives complements writing for LIS journals. While a number of academic institutions offer space for faculty to self-archive their work (and some even require it), librarian authors should also consider self-archiving their articles, presentations, and other work in a subject-specific cross-institutional archive. These broader services offer a number of advantages, and strong archives also help increase the visibility and accessibility of the library literature -- a plus for the profession as a whole. |

Understanding Publisher Royalties
http://www.publishondemand.net/article.asp?ArticleID=3 Understanding Publisher Royalties If you are publishing with a POD (Publish on Demand) publisher solely to see your name in print, royalties are of little concern to you. For the other authors reading this site, royalties should be one of your primary concerns when considering which POD publisher to publish with. Understanding how their royalty system works is the first step to understanding how many copies of your book it will take to break even. Each publisher seems to have a different way of phrasing their royalty payments and a different way of calculating your royalty payment. With several hundred dollars on average for setup fees, knowing how much money you can expect to make will help you make your decision whether or not to publish with a Print on Demand firm and how many copies you will need to sell. |
