'A new chapter opens for Scots literary entrepreneurs', announces Louisa McLennan, the Herald's Assistant Digital Editor, as she presents a round-up of Scotland's digital publishing scene. Along with describing some of our own adventures in ebooks and apps, she includes her interviews with Allan Guthrie, one of the the inventive 'Blasted Heathens', and Annaliese Mackintosh of Cargo (congrats to Cargo for their recent Best Newcomer award from The List!) Ewan Morrison comments as an author, and Marc Lambert, chief executive of the Scottish Book Trust, says "We are happy with people reading on whatever platform is appropriate and useful to them".

We're happy to see how enthusiastically Glasgow-based companies have embraced the digital revolution. But we still love the printed book. Anyone who's seen our new releases Panda: Back from the Brink or Beneath Cold Seas will know that we've done everything possible to present the stunning work of two exceptional wildlife photographers to best effect. Look out for reviews of both in January.
