The activities of printing and publishing have relied on proved old technology and long standing. The purpose of it is to create the contents in printing forms by providing linear progression definitely. The opportunities are provided significantly for publishing in electronic and printing format both by the development and emergence of digital technologies.

There is a trends in digitization against the change background broader within the industry of book publishing are examined by author. Digital technology and array of challenges confronted with industry has offer a lot. The response of industry has been hesitant and uneven; it has been learned better from lessons of failure of earlier technology initiatives.
It is clear that there is one development opportunity that has impact upon publishing of book that development in reading device associated the eBook and in eBook. Now a days eBook is a publishing reality and continuously growing and available on mobile phones and smartphones. In publishing market, they are operating such as potential disruptors, enabler and disentermideaters(Martin,2010).
Organization Background
There is a book publisher in Melbourne Australia that is printing incorporated Book Publishing which is independent in nature. This book publisher has established itself in the feminist publication’s niche market. It is small in size and have number of employee is 50. It is growing as a leader in online publishing industry of Australia. Ultimately, it is performed like a pacesetter in the field of eBook and internet publishing. This company becomes the third publisher of Australia that placed entire catalog online.
There had been two choices for aspiring authors for publish own work. The first option was as according to the one of the major publisher that their work needed and deserved publication. An advance payment would be received by author. Then the cost of printing is absorbed by publisher and he promotes the book and waits for the cheque. The second option was self-publishing by author.
As in new era, there is emerged a new option: Electronic publishing due to the growth of internet too fast. So the work of author is also converted form publish the book to electronic file that can easily read on-screen or take a print through printer. eBooks can be purchased by Buyer from website and it can also be downloaded.

It is difficult to monitor sales records of books and performance of sales person and calculate royalty payments of author. There is need of HR staff to combined data from separate channels manually. There is no way to attain 100% accuracy. We perform tracking only if we received any complain.
