As we are to make a publication, I thought it best to research a bit into what exactly a publication is. First thoughts are that a publication is simply a book, however it can be so much more than that.
A book
A book is a set of written, printed, illustrated, or blank sheets, made of ink, paper, parchment, or other materials, usually fastened together to hinge at one side. A single sheet within a book is called a leaf, and each side of a leaf is called a page. A book produced in electronic format is known as an electronic book (e-book).

What is a publication?
To publish is to make content available to the public. While specific use of the term may vary among countries, it is usually applied to text, images, or other audio-visual content on any medium, including paper (newspapers, magazines, catalogs, etc.) or electronic publishing forms such as websites, e-books, Compact Discs and MP3s. The word publication means the act of publishing, and also refers to any copies.
