As far as I understood this happen when they have agreement with such publisher.
How those books should be handled? Should they be filed as ebook?As non-ebook(i.e. hardback)? "
As an alternate cover edition (otherwise there would be no link to the ISBN that is on the ebook) and as an ebook or kindle depending on format. I add a mention of the publisher change to the librarian note.
