By Joshua Kim, Inside Higher Ed
If you work in higher ed, you fall asleep every night asking yourself the following questions:
Will we suffer the same fate as the record industry, the bookstores and the newspaper business?
Is higher ed another example of a physical, as opposed to a digital, information industry – and therefore ripe for disruption?
If the core business model of education is built on scarcity, will we survive this transition to information abundance?
I imagine that these questions also haunt the dreams of people who work in publishing.
