In partnership with the School District of Palm Beach County, FL, Canon Solutions America is launching its ninth annual Future Authors Project. More than 40 middle and high school students have been chosen from nearly 100 applicants to participate in a free eight-day summer writing workshop.

In the "On-Demand Is in Demand for Books" Webinar, recently presented by Book Business and Printing Impressions, and sponsored by Canon Solutions America, more than 300 registrants heard from industry leaders about critical market trends, why on-demand printing technologies are so important, as well as the business implications for digital technology.

Canon Solutions America, a subsidiary of Canon U.S.A., was recently honored for its Future Authors Project by The School District of Palm Beach County, FL, with a Bronze Business Partner Award in the large business category. The private-public partnership with the school district helps students learn about the processes of writing, editing and digitally publishing books.
