Xu Qing-qi, Vice President, Institute for Information Industry:The Policy to Promote E-Books資策會副執行長許清琦：政策點火 推動電子書
The Office to Promote the Digital Content Industry, an agency that helps develop an industry worth tens of billions of US dollars, was unveiled on September 29, 2009. The establishment of this agency is testimony to Taiwan’s intention to develop its e-book industry. Xu Qing-qi, Director of the Office to Promote the Digital Content Industry responsible for the development of the digital content industry, and Vice President of the Institute for Information Industry, notes the government plans to invest NT$2.134 billion over five years to develop Taiwan’s digital content industry, with the aim of establishing 2-3 Chinese-language e-book content exchange centers by 2013.
攸關千億產值的「數位內容產業推動辦公室」於2009年9月29日揭牌啟動，宣示台灣加入電子書市場行列，手持數位內容產業發展帥旗的「數位內容產業推動辦公室」主任、財團法人資訊工業策進會副執行長許清琦表示，政府預計在5年內投入新台幣21.34億元，帶動台灣數位內容產業的發展，預計在102年內達成催生2-3家華文電子書內容交換中心等目標。
To construct the infrastructure, the Office has decided to adopt the e-PUB international format standard and establish e-PUB planning taskforce. Once a standard format is decided, the digital content in the e-book platform trading centers may be readily exchanged, making it easy for carriers such as e-readers, mobiles and MIDs to read the content as long as files are converted.
為建構基礎架構，資策會「數位內容產業推動辦公室」凝聚共識，採用e-PUB國際格式標準，規劃成立e-PUB細部規劃小組等，在格式訂定統一規格之後，電子書平台交易中心的數位內容可互通，未來在電子閱讀器、手機、MID等不同載具，只要轉檔就可便利閱讀。
Development of the digital publishing industry is also one of the Office’s top priorities. The Office hopes that it can create sufficient value for Taiwan’s digital publishing industry to play a major role in the world by 2013. Other goals include creating a society in which people enjoy reading and leading the world in the publication of Chinese-language materials. In the digital publishing industry chain, Taiwan has a competitive edge in the R&D of e-paper and readers. However, there is plenty of room for improvement in terms of the content of e-books, content trading centers and innovative applications.
數位出版產業的推動也是推動辦公室的重要主題，希望到102年能打造完備的產業價值，成為全球產業重鎮，並且建構優質閱讀社會，領導華文出版。在數位出版產業鏈中，台灣在電子紙、閱讀器研發製造能力很強，但電子書內容、內容交易中心及創新應用三方面還要再努力。
