What are the main trends in book publishing?

As many new trends arise in the book publishing field, the main trends include more and more books being published and more people purchasing them.  These books are being purchased by students, consumers, and businesses.  Another trend is that large publishing houses are consolidating due to the fact that smaller publishing houses are coming about, as well as people self publishing their own manuscripts.  These new smaller publishers reach less people than the larger book publishers.  The internet also plays a large role in book publishing with new electronic publishers including online sources.  Competition in this field have increased overtime because of technology rising.
