In partnership with Meanjin and Overland, we continue this series in 2011. With Amazon.com, ebooks and print-on-demand, are we seeing the end of the traditional bookstore? In the first Meanland event for 2011, a panel of retailers, e-traders and industry insiders discuss how book selling is changing and what that evolution means for readers, writers and literature.
Sally Heath is editor of Meanjin and a former Fairfax journalist.
Corrie Perkin is a Melbourne journalist and bookseller.
Michael Webster is a senior lecturer in publishing at RMIT and principal consultant, Nielsen BookScan.
Jo Case is editor of Readings Monthly, the newsletter for Readings Books & Music. She is also books editor of The Big Issue, associate editor of Kill Your Darlings and a freelance reviewer for The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and various other publications.
This is a free event. Booking recommended.
