Olive Tree at BookExpo America
For those of you who don’t know what BookExpo America (BEA) is, let me give you a quick summary. BEA is the third largest book fair in the world, and combines the largest selection of English language titles on the planet with special industry and author events and unparalleled educational content to create a dynamic environment for networking, sourcing and relationship building. It’s main purpose? To fuel the passion for books and spark new ideas for publishers, booksellers, librarians and rights professionals from around the world.
Just shy of two weeks ago, Olive Tree was one of the many companies present at this book fair. You might wonder what Olive Tree Bible Software was doing at a book fair? The answer is simple - we were working on licensing more products that we can make available for you to install to your PDA or Smartphone device! As an electronic publisher, Olive Tree works with other publishing companies to acheive permissions for Bibles, study tools, devotionals, and Christian eBooks. We then get eText for those books, convert them to the Olive Tree format, and post them on our website for you to download! So that’s how things work in the realm of electronic publishing…
While we were there we met with many publishers and made great progress in moving forward with more resources for handheld platforms. More new products are always around the corner!
