With Barbara Quint, editor of Searcher magazine
Barbara Quint is not only one of the world’s most famous online searchers, but the most creative and controversial writer, editor, and speaker to emerge from the information industry in the last two decades. BQ is a guru of librarians and database professionals the world over, and–as her readers, publishers, and “quarry” know–when it comes to barbed wit, she is in a class by herself.
In this incisive interview, Barbara holds forth on:
- Why Google’s digitization project is a good deal for publishers…and authors
- How academics are rebelling against journal publishers who charge exorbitant prices–and winning
- John Ford, Wee Willie Winkie, and opportunities for publishing a new kind of book
