Definition and Examples
- Definition
- A commercial publisher operates to produce and distribute various types of publications, such as books, magazines, or digital content, with the primary goal of generating profit. Unlike academic publishers, commercial publishers often focus on broader audiences and market-driven topics. In the legal sector, commercial publishers might produce legal texts, practice guides, or public-facing materials that appeal to professionals, students, or the general public, with revenue generated through sales, subscriptions, or advertising.
