Estimates vary of the number of translated works and run as high as 80%-90% of output with half of those originating in the English language. William A. Stanton, director of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) said that the Taiwan office of the Commercial Service had led the world in two of the last three years and placed second last year.

Analysts have long worried that Amazon was investing too heavily in its business, but that hasn’t stopped Amazon from keeping up those investments or its stock price rising (it has a 52-week high of $246.71). The most recent report, though, renewed concerns among some analysts that Amazon was not getting a high enough return on its investments. ]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1638/now-and-then-jumps-into-digita.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1638/now-and-then-jumps-into-digita.html In early 2011, Amazon launched Kindle Singles, and among those who saw the potential of the short-form digital content model were Chandos Erwin, managing director of the digital agency Oatmeal Beach, and Ivan Dee, founder of Ivan R.

While bookseller attendance is capped at 500, the number of authors has grown to more than 60 at next week’s seventh annual gathering, Wi7. Some houses are using the show to build enthusiasm for summer releases like Chris Cleave’s Gold. Others are reminding booksellers about new books that have just shipped to their stores, like Andrea Cremer’s Bloodrose. ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1456/canadian-indie-booksellers-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1456/canadian-indie-booksellers-.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1457/job-moves-january-6-2012.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1457/job-moves-january-6-2012.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1458/authors-on-the-air-january-6-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1458/authors-on-the-air-january-6-.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1459/books-soft-at-target.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1459/books-soft-at-target.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1460/podcast-pws-week-ahead-for-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1460/podcast-pws-week-ahead-for-.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1461/amanda-cook-takes-exec-editor-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1461/amanda-cook-takes-exec-editor-.html ]]> Fri, 06 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1462/another-makeover-for-bn.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1462/another-makeover-for-bn.html Barnes & Noble has undergone lots of changes since Len Riggio first took over the bookstore chain in 1965, and it is heading toward what could be its most dramatic makeover since Riggio bought the B.

Amazon’s aggressive demands to publishers regarding co-op and retail discounts surfaced, some insiders began suggesting that the time had come to actively explore ways to lessen publishers’ dependence on the e-tailer. ]]> Fri, 16 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1363/job-moves-december-15-2011.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1363/job-moves-december-15-2011.html ]]> Thu, 15 Dec

bricks-and-mortar book market, sidelines have become essential for filling the void formerly occupied by books—and keeping cash registers ringing. So much so that when Eileen McGervey opened One More Page in Arlington, Va., in January, she knew that she wanted to have not just books but also wine and chocolate. “That was for people to have multiple reasons to come into the store,” she explains. So far, it’s paying off. Her book sales have been strong, and she’s bringing in more bottles of wine than some restaurants. ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1338/merger-forms-new-dutch-house-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1338/merger-forms-new-dutch-house-.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1339/distribution-publishers-group.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1339/distribution-publishers-group.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1340/podcast-pws-week-ahead-for-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1340/podcast-pws-week-ahead-for-.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1341/authors-on-the-air-december-9.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1341/authors-on-the-air-december-9.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1342/amazon-backlash-continues-to-b.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1342/amazon-backlash-continues-to-b.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1343/stonesong-launches-new-web-sit.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1343/stonesong-launches-new-web-sit.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1346/news-briefs-week-of-december-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1346/news-briefs-week-of-december-.html ]]> Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1347/globe-pequot-press-goes-back-t.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1347/globe-pequot-press-goes-back-t.html In August 2009, Jim Joseph was named president and COO of Globe Pequot Press.

The ensuing bankruptcy has since wound down, but only after three of the six JoBeth stores closed—Charlotte, N.C.; Pittsburgh, Pa.; and Cleveland, Ohio—and the Davis-Kidd store in Nashville. Van Uum lost both the Joseph-Beth and Davis-Kidd names along with the Lexington and Cincinnati stores and a health clinic in Cleveland to his former landlord, Robert Langley, in auction; a fourth store in Virginia went to Books-A-Million. Instead of planning a 25th anniversary celebration for JoBeth, which he cofounded in 1986, Van Uum has spent the past six months since the bankruptcy was resolved renovating the only store in the chain that he kept, the former Davis-Kidd in Memphis, renamed the Booksellers at Laurelwood. ]]> Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1293/david-shanks-pw-person-of-the.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1293/david-shanks-pw-person-of-the.html ]]> Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1294/notables-of-2011.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1294/notables-of-2011.html ]]> Fri, 02 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1295/off-the-shelf-ala-preview-201.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1295/off-the-shelf-ala-preview-201.html More than 10,000 librarians, publishers, authors, and vendors will gather in Dallas, January 20–24, for the 2012 American Library Association Midwinter meeting.

And although e-book sales jumped in the nine months—ahead 137.9% at the 15 reporting houses—the gain was not enough to offset the declines in the print segments.

For Melville House and Graeber, the book couldn’t have come at a better time: Debt was released in July when the words “debt crisis” were headlining every newspaper in the country.

to his hotel room, that got Dan Halpern into publishing. The author was Paul Bowles, it was the late 1960s, and Halpern agreed to take the writer on the long drive back to Santa Monica when Bowles tired of the party he’d been thrown at Cal State Northridge. The trip led to a conversation about poetry, which Halpern was studying, and a recommendation to travel abroad. It also led to Halpern cementing a friendship with Bowles and becoming a small press publisher. ]]> Fri, 25 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1258/traverse-city-is-for-book-love.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1258/traverse-city-is-for-book-love.html Megan Raphael, executive director of the National Writers Series, a literary nonprofit organization, in Traverse City, Mich., insists that local government leaders should declare it a “book city.” ]]> Fri, 25 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1259/news-briefs-week-of-november-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1259/news-briefs-week-of-november-.html ]]> Fri, 25 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1260/the-underground-drives-s.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1260/the-underground-drives-s.html Founded in Cleveland 16 years ago in Joe Biel’s bedroom, Microcosm Publishing is a “self-empowerment” and alternative culture publisher and distributor in Portland, Ore., and Lansing, Kansas.

As the story goes, the industry consolidated—smaller and midsize publishers were gobbled up and brought together into six large houses that themselves are small pieces of bigger media conglomerates—and the expectations for a title’s sales and revenue rose. With consolidation, the big players began swinging for the fences, focusing on acquiring big bestsellers (or at least books they thought they could turn into big bestsellers), abandoning a model in which they could make small amounts of money on books for audiences of varying sizes. Now, as a result of these changes, the sea of authors who sold modestly at the big six are increasingly being turned away. While a cluster of small presses have sprung up that trade in specialized categories and literary fiction, more commercial authors, abandoned by their big publishers, are finding there aren’t many options in the middle. ]]> Fri, 04 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1149/nea-studies-writers-statistics.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1149/nea-studies-writers-statistics.html Writers and authors are better educated and earn more on average than the rest of the U.S. workforce, according to a study by the National Endowment for the Arts, based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Commerce. The study, “Artists and Art Workers in the United States,” draws on information from the “American Community Survey (2005–2009)” and updates the NEA’s earlier study, “Artists in the Workforce, 2000–2005.” ]]> Fri, 04 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1150/elf-heads-to-tv-for-the-holida.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1150/elf-heads-to-tv-for-the-holida.html It may be increasingly common for first-time authors who can’t place their book with a trade house to publish themselves. But it’s pretty rare for a self-published book to sell more than 1.5 million copies—or move to the small screen as an animated film to be aired on CBS in prime time on Black Friday, November 25. Yet former teachers Carol Aebersold and her daughter, Chanda Bell, have pulled off both feats in the past seven years since completing the manuscript for The Elf on the Shelf, a children’s book based on their Scandinavian family’s Yuletime tradition of moving an elf around the house. ]]> Fri, 04 Nov 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1151/news-briefs-week-of-november-.html

had two main objectives—to reduce the size of its list and to cut editorial costs to improve the profitability of its illustrated book group. What it hadn’t counted on was the phenomenal success of its publishing partnership with Lego. “That’s been the cherry on top,” said Peter Field, a Penguin veteran who took over responsibility for DK in summer 2009 as CEO. Since the Lego license kicked in, in fall 2009, DK has sold 6.5 million units through June 2011 and has 25 titles in its catalogue. The top-sellers in the line this year are LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Sticker Collection; LEGO Harry Potter: Building the Magical World; and LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary. ]]> Fri, 21 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1040/job-moves-october-20-2011.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1040/job-moves-october-20-2011.html ]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1047/authors-wow-gliba-booksellers-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1047/authors-wow-gliba-booksellers-.html For many GLIBA booksellers attending this year\'s show in Dearborn, Mich., the roster of 68 authors – especially the children\'s book authors – just couldn\'t get any better. ]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1048/linden-tree-on-the-move.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1048/linden-tree-on-the-move.html ]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1049/neiba-gets-back-to-childrens.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1049/neiba-gets-back-to-childrens.html ]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1050/licensing-hotline-october-20.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/1050/licensing-hotline-october-20.html After a decades-long hiatus, Charles Schulz\'s Peanuts characters will make their way back into comic book stores, thanks to a license between BOOM!

The change in the division began last October when Declan Moore, who began at NGS in 1995, was appointed executive v-p for the society and president of publishing. Shortly after his appointment, Moore asked Melina Bellows, chief creative officer of Kids and Families for NGS, who worked on children’s books, to oversee editorial for adult books as well. ]]> Fri, 07 Oct 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/987/history-press-marches-on.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/987/history-press-marches-on.html In a time of change in the book industry, the History Press, an independent publisher in Charleston, S.C., is doing a brisk business in titles designed specifically for local markets. From 20 books in its inaugural year of 2004, History Press is on track to release 325 books in 2011. The company currently boasts 17 different series, including Hidden History, True Crime, American Legends, Food & Drink, plus a Civil War Sesquicentennial series, started in 2009. And its reach, in terms of regions covered, is expanding westward; this month and next, History Press releases its first two Oregon titles, Hidden History of Civil War Oregon (yes, the Civil War did reach Oregon) by Randol B.

Her book-and-CD set, When You Wish upon a Star, illustrated by Eric Puybaret, will be released this month with a 100,000-copy first printing, the largest in Charlesbridge’s 22-year-history. ]]> Fri,

http://www.pubmatch.com/news/858/print-declines-outpace-digital.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/858/print-declines-outpace-digital.html Sales of print books in the major trade categories fell 22.9% in the first six months of 2011 at the houses that report figures to the Association of American Publishers. The declines were greatest among the adult segments, with sales down by more than 20% in the hardcover, trade paperback, and mass market paperback categories. While e-book sales jumped 161.3% in the six-month period, the gain was not enough to offset the decline in print, and combined e-book and print book revenue fell 8.6% at the reporting trade publishers. Print book sales were no doubt hurt by the demise of Borders, which sold few new titles from the major houses during the going-out-of-business sales conducted at closing stores. ]]> Fri, 16 Sep 2011

Amid the summer calm, though, many are eyeing Amazon’s new publishing unit, Amazon Publishing, which was unveiled just before BEA and which has quietly, some might say secretively, been staffing up.

http://www.pubmatch.com/news/538/selling-after-borders.html It\'s no secret that Borders was hemorrhaging money long before it sought chapter bankruptcy protection five months ago. Because of the company\'s shaky finances, most publishers began transitioning sales to other outlets long before the bankruptcy filing. Even so, the crippled chain moved a lot of books; it was the nation\'s #3 bookseller, with 14% of the market last year, according to Bowker. ]]> Fri, 22 Jul 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/539/a-world-without-borders.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/539/a-world-without-borders.html It might seem only reasonable for independents to gloat, at least a little, now that one of their biggest competitors, Borders Book Group, which had 1,249 stores in 2003, has begun closing its remaining 399 stores. But the response from indies to Borders\'s demise has been muted by the potential impact on the overall health of the bookselling business and the readers it serves. ]]> Fri, 22 Jul 2011 00:00:00

But with a new partnership with the American Booksellers Association to help get frontlist and midlist titles from mainstream houses (something that has eluded ODB to date), an agreement with HarperCollins for some backlist titles with the promise of new releases at some point in the future, and more involvement from Xerox, the EBM could be poised to become a bookstore staple. ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/392/promotions-additions-at-pw.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/392/promotions-additions-at-pw.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/393/news-briefs-week-of-613201.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/393/news-briefs-week-of-613201.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/394/akashic-to-launch-open-lens-im.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/394/akashic-to-launch-open-lens-im.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/395/siglio-press-merging-literatu.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/395/siglio-press-merging-literatu.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/396/distribution-ws-publishing-mo.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/396/distribution-ws-publishing-mo.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/397/amazon-publishing-announces-su.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/397/amazon-publishing-announces-su.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/398/borders-cuts-new-closing-list-.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/398/borders-cuts-new-closing-list-.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/399/comings-and-goings-june-13-2.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/399/comings-and-goings-june-13-2.html ]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/400/canadian-postal-strike-has-e-t.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/400/canadian-postal-strike-has-e-t.html ]]> Fri, 10 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/401/job-moves-june-10-2011.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/401/job-moves-june-10-2011.html ]]> Fri, 10 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/402/kids-ink-turns-25.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/402/kids-ink-turns-25.html ]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/403/the-other-black-friday-for-chi.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/403/the-other-black-friday-for-chi.html ]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/303/bea-2011-childrens-books-at.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/303/bea-2011-childrens-books-at.html ]]> Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/304/bea-2011-writing-up-ya-autho.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/304/bea-2011-writing-up-ya-autho.html ]]> Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/305/bea-2011-ya-authors-crusade-t.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/305/bea-2011-ya-authors-crusade-t.html ]]> Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/306/bea-2011-the-strategy-of-in-s.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/306/bea-2011-the-strategy-of-in-s.html ]]> Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/307/bea-2011-guys-read-thrill.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/307/bea-2011-guys-read-thrill.html ]]> Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/300/finding-graphic-novels-in-unex.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/300/finding-graphic-novels-in-unex.html ]]> Tue, 31 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/301/hot-fall-graphic-novels-for-li.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/301/hot-fall-graphic-novels-for-li.html ]]> Tue, 31 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/302/2011-bea-attendance-down-sligh.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/302/2011-bea-attendance-down-sligh.html ]]> Tue, 31 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/299/a-better-vibe-at-bea-2011.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/299/a-better-vibe-at-bea-2011.html With the effect of the recession steadily, if slowly, fading, and the industry getting a better grasp on the role e-books will play in its future, the 2011 edition of BookExpo America was the most vibrant since the economy collapsed in late 2007. BEA event director Steve Rosato noted that with the book business and the economy improving, there were less than 10 cancellations for booth space compared to more than 20 last year. \"It was nothing at all like the past few years, particularly 2008 when it seemed like one booth in, one booth out,\" Rosato said. ]]> Mon, 30 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700

Liz Thomson reports.   If we look back, on New Year’s Eve, as we inevitably will, not just on the past year but on the first decade of the 21st century, there is much to make us downcast. But if, geopolitically, relations between the Arab world and the West have often been deeply troubled, in terms of international publishing relationships have grown stronger as each side recognises that, culturally and commercially, there is much to be gained by forging closer ties.

Abu Dhabi, 120 kilometers southwest of Dubai, tends to be an afterthought, despite its status as the capital city of the UAE. It's high time for perceptions to change. There is ample evidence pointing to the rise of Abu Dhabi as the region's cultural center, and much of its progress in literature, publishing and reading is attributed to one organization: the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage (ADACH).

Gloria Bailey, manager of international book fairs at the Publishers Association, met Bologna Director Roberta Chinni at the recent Beijing Book Fair, and learned that the fair had also received complains about the curtailment from publishers in France, Switzerland and Australia.

But rather than celebrate and serve the hobbyists, we expect them to shell out ever more money for the books we keep throwing at them (a half million English-language books in 2008 in the U.S.). Cutting back might work for individual companies, but not for an industry — s/he who truly believe that the best thing for our customers is less choice shouldn’t let the door hit them on the way out of this industry, indeed this culture. We’ve built a massive supply chain system for connecting writers and readers because it suits us, but it clearly doesn’t suit most writers or readers. The ones getting their advances cut right now are a small minority of writers (working in any language today); we  should not weep for them, most were overpaid anyway.

To quote Apple's ubiquitous iPhone slogan, “There's an app for that.” Without question, the proliferation of smartphones is rapidly changing the way we think about mobile computing—and in the coming months and years, they may very well change the way we think about books. Since Apple launched its App Store in June 2008, the market for apps—those little programs you download to your smart phone (iPhone, Blackberry, Palm, etc.) to make them do things other than make and receive calls—is booming. Just a year from its launch, Apple now offers more than 50,000 apps in its store, ranging from arcade games to GPS technology that can direct you to the nearest hoagie. And, of course, apps let you read books on you... ]]> Mon, 06 Jul 2009 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/17/iraqi-egyptian-publishers-ent.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/17/iraqi-egyptian-publishers-ent.html By Publishingperspectives.com By Chip Rossetti ABU DHABI: KITAB, the joint venture of the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage and the Frankfurt Book Fair, recently held the first of two five-day CEO-level training programs it has organized this year for publishers from the Arab world. Nineteen publishers from eight Arab countries attended a series of workshops in Abu Dhabi from June 14 to 18, all with the aim of increasing the level of professionalism in the Arabic book publishing industry. A second session for the CEOs will be held this December 6 to 10, with sessions for mid-management publishing professionals from September 27 to October 1 and November 8 to 12.

Instead, newspapers "sell your attention; they pay for it with their editors and writers." This statement, in many ways, framed the panel's discussion about content, what form it may take and how it's delivered. "[The newspapers] don't own your attention, and unless they get it back, they can't win you with content."   It's no longer about just hardcover versus paperback, but also being able to explain to customers about the pros and cons of the Kindle or other e-readers, said Jenn Northington, events and marketing manager at the King's English Bookshop in Salt Lake City, Utah.

But with e-books, Ramy Habeeb, founder of the Egypt-based publisher Kotobarabia, has managed to bypass both seemingly intractable problems. As the first e-publisher devoted exclusively to Arabic-lan... ]]> Mon, 22 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/4/140-character-confab-listenin.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/4/140-character-confab-listenin.html By Publishers Weekly Publishersweekly.com 140 Character Confab: Listening To and Learning About Twitter By Calvin Reid -- Publishers Weekly, 6/19/2009 8:09:00 AM There were two book panels at the recent 140 Characters Conference, a two-day convention held in New York focused on the pervasive influence of Twitter on seemingly everything, but it became clear that the specific content of those 2 panels—indeed all of the panels at event—was a secondary consideration.

The audience for comics historically skews young and very male. As it turns out, that\'s just what libraries love about carrying graphic novels--they reel in boys, who are otherwise too often absent from the stacks. ]]> Mon, 20 May 2002 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.pubmatch.com/news/158/graphic-novels-draw-new-buyers.html http://www.pubmatch.com/news/158/graphic-novels-draw-new-buyers.html ]]> Wed, 08 May 2002 00:00:00 -0700
