You Can Write and Publish a Book: http://www.booksbyjohnbond.com/you-ca... TRANSCRIPT Hi there. I am John Bond from Riverwinds Consulting and this is Publishing Defined. Today I am going to go discuss the broadest of topics: what is a monograph? A monograph, to many people, is another name for a book. A monograph is scholarly a work usually on a single topic. Many times, it is written by one author. It is always non-fiction. A monograph differs from a textbook which is a book used by students for a particular area of study. Unlike a textbook, the purpose of a monograph is to present research or scholarship on a topic. This research is different from an article in several ways, but most notably is a monograph is much longer. There is probably no consensus as to length, but a range might be 25,000 to 75,000 words, plus images and tables. A monograph is usually a single installment and not a multi-volume or periodic series. Monographs many times are a sign of academic advancement by the author as their career and research progresses. Other individuals in a field and libraries are usually considered the prime markets for monographs, but that is changing. Textbooks on the other hand, are required by an instructor or professor and discuss and encompass an area of study for a students’ use. The student may either receive the textbook from the institution or purchase it themselves. The growing costs of textbooks has become a concern to many. Returning to monographs, they traditionally were presented in print form; and then print and eBook form. Now increasingly they are eBook only. They also can also be offered in large eBook collections or databases that institutions might subscribe to. The print version might also be available through a print-on-demand option. Another trend has been toward open access monographs. Most researchers primary interest is the widest dissemination of their work. Open access allows for this, with few barriers to access. The stumbling block for the growth of OA monographs is the required funding by the author to finance its creation. As the publishing word changes, monographs and scholarly books will evolve as well. Lengths, formats, and their digital presentation will continue to reflect the rapidly changing world to adapt to researchers and readers’ needs. Well that’s it. I’ve released a new eBook called, “The Request for Proposal in Publishing: Managing the RFP Process.” It is a short, focused guide to this essential business task that associations or societies use to find potential publishing partners.
