A few weeks ago I posted about my new book Expect More: Demanding Better Libraries For Today’s Complex World. Well, It is coming out Monday. All next week I’ll be posting more about the book including the first chapter and a sort of “behind the scenes” post about self-publishing. In the meantime I wanted to share a few pictures of the eBook version and the proof.
Here’s the proof of the book. What still amazes me is that I finished the book on Saturday and had the proof in my hand by Tuesday:
Those of you who have read the Atlas will be glad to hear that it is 124 pages and paperback. It was written to be a single sitting read by busy folks like librarians, board members, and provosts.
Here is the eBook version running on an iPad, Kindle Touch, Kindle Fire, and a Nook Tablet:
The book will be sold without DRM.
In any case, look for much more on Monday!

Can we purchase the e-book on the iBook Apple site?
Not initially. Monday you’ll be able to download a version you can load on iBooks. I’m working on a version optimized for the iPad, and it should be available directly from Apple’s iBook Store soon.
You can now purchase the iPad version right from Apple. For iPhones and other Apple devices you will be able to buy it directly soon.
