According to this article, WH Smith will be removing all self-published books for the time being.
Quote:
The statement said: "Our website will become live again once all self-published ebooks have been removed and we are totally sure that there are no offending titles available.
When our website goes back online it will not display any self-published material until we are completely confident that inappropriate books can never be shown again."
