Reed Elsevier ditches print to embrace digital future
Laura Smith
Science, technical and medical publisher Reed Elsevier has signalled its intention to sell its business titles and concentrate on information-driven services and products.
Among the titles published by the company's business-to-business arm, Reed Business Information (RBI), are New Scientist, Computer Weekly and Variety.
The Anglo-Dutch media giant announced the move last month after its 2007 financial results, saying the division no longer fitted with the future direction of the company because of its reliance on advertising.
At the same time as Reed Elsevier was signalling its intention to focus on growing its business through subscription-based services, it announced the acquisition of ChoicePoint for [pounds sterling]2.1bn payable in cash.
