Small Press Distrubution Shuts Down - Publishers Weekly

It's not easy to run a small company.

Panzer found some unfortunate news at the Publishers Weekly site today. The Small Press Distribution shut down last week. 

 

According to Jim Milliot's post the SPD shut down immediately on March 28. The post includes quotes from Kent Watson, executive director, about the closure. As the name implies the company distributes materials for small press, but this has proved to be nearly impossible in today's book climate.

Panzer says, "An immediate closure will cause a lot of problems for small presses."
