Neither - it means that the rights have reverted to the author or their estate. (Whether this happens automatically when a book goes out of print, or has to be requested by the author after it's been OOP for a certain amount of time, will depend on the specific contract.)

And what if the author owns the rights? I've even seen the button on out-of-print books that the author is now self-publishing in a Kindle edition. |
