List of English language book publishers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from List of publishers)
This is a list of English language book publishers. It includes imprints of larger publishing groups, which may have resulted from business mergers. Included are academic publishers, technical manual publishers, publishers for the traditional book trade (both for adults and children), religious publishers, and small press publishers, among other types. Some of these publishers may be out of business entirely. It does not include businesses that are exclusively printers/manufacturers, vanity presses (publishing and distributing books for a fee), or book packagers.
