Although there had been other networks in the previous decade, this one impacted the world differently and was the first to be used in the publishing industry, by publishers, authors and booksellers, as a means to reach readers directly. Today, 20 years later, sites such as X, Instagram and Tik Tok are used as essential places to inform people about books, how have they evolved and what consequences has this had in these 20 years?

This law will directly affect e-books and publishing houses’ websites. In this round table we propose to answer many of the questions that publishers ask about how it will affect them and the steps to be taken to comply with the law. CC1, Sala 1.2
