The International Directory of Little Magazines and Small Presses

FROM THE PUBLISHER

The 40th Anniversary Edition of "The Bible of the Business" (Wall Street Journal).

This essential reference for writers, librarians, students of modern literature, and readers worldwide was started in the 1960s during the initial phase of the small-press revolution. It is safe to say, on its fortieth birthday, that the directory is a publishing legend. It includes information on over 5,000 presses and journals from around the world, listing addresses, manuscript requirements, payment rates, and recent publications. Subject and regional indexes are also provided.

SYNOPSIS

& Previous editions of this standard directory are cited in Books for College Libraries, 3rd ed. and Guide to Reference Books. Issued annually, it presents an alphabetically arranged catalog of 4,000 magazines with a circulation under 50,000, and presses that publish only a few books a year. Each entry lists contact information, type of material, number of issues or books published in 2001, copy price, average number of pages, length of reporting time on manuscripts, percentage of submissions published, and payment rate.
