[MTC Global] [Weekend Big Discussion-I] What does the future hold for academic books?

With pressures on academics to do more research, more teaching and be subject to ever more assessment regimes, what might the future of the academic book be? Do scholars still have the time and mental fortitude for the sustained research, reflection, and reporting that needs to go into a major monograph or critical edition? Is the move towards open access an uncontested benefit for scholars?  What do massive digital developments mean for scholarship? Is reading in digital formats becoming the norm?

​Thanks and Regards.​
