March is Small Press Month: Books Beyond the Obvious - Support Independent Publishing

HIGHLIGHTS - Things to do for Small Press Month; Recommended Small Press Titles; Small Press Month Events; Small Press Month Website;

March 2006 is the tenth anniversary of Small Press Month. Co-founded by the Small Press Center and the PMA, The Independent Book Publishers Association, National Small Press Month is a yearly celebration of independent publishing. We are looking to generate enthusiasm and action on all fronts of independent publishing- from the distributors to publishers to bookstores to writers. By involving different segments of the small and independent publishing community we can make more of a collective effort to raise public awareness of the important work published by small presses.

We encourage you to take part in this celebration and have suggested ways to help you. We suggest 31 Things to do for Small Press Month if you are an Independent Publisher and 10 Things to do if you are a bookstore or library. We would love to hear what you've used from the list.

Small Press Month is co-sponsored by the Small Press Center and PMA, The Independent Book Publishers Association and CLMP (The Council of Literary Magazine and Presses). Additional support has been provided by Book Sense, American Booksellers Association, Small Press Distribution, Biblio Distribution, Seven Stories Press, Foreword Magazine and National Book Network. We would like to acknowledge the generous support of Ingram Publishing Services, Lulu.com, R.J.Communications and BookExpo America, the premier event serving the book publishing industry. Special thanks to Kurt Vonnegut
