Abstract:

The development of network information and the rise of electronic books have

caused a continuous impact on the publishing industry. Micro-publishers are often the most

vulnerable objects due to their small size and weak resistance to pressure. However， while

facing survival challenges， Danish micro-publishers have been able to rise against the trend and

become a model for countries to follow. This article provides an overview of the basic status quo

of Danish micro-publishers from three levels ： scale definition， publishing preference and local

orientation. On this basis， this article summarizes the unique characteristics of Danish micro

publishers in five aspects ： non-profit orientation， collective publishing， alternative management，

diversity policy， and alliance organization. This article introduces the operating characteristics and

practical innovation strategies of Danish micro-publishers in order to provide a reference for the

rapid development of China’s publishing industry.
