We are thrilled to announce that Berghahn Books has been shortlisted for The British Book Industry Awards. We are in excellent company for the Independent Academic, Educational and Professional Publisher of the Year Award alongside fellow nominees Bright Red Publishing, How2become, Jessica Kingsley Publishers, Policy Press, and Rowman & Littlefield International.
From The Bookseller’s website:
The British Book Industry Awards will celebrate the greatness of the British book trade and the people behind it – the best books, the best writers, the best bookshops, the best publishers – from industry greats to those starting out. Building on the success and legacy of The Bookseller Industry Awards (the trade “Nibbies”), 2016 will mark the first step, and a step-change, in the way the book trade presents itself to itself and to the wider world.
The winners will be announced 9th May 2016. Stay tuned!
We are thrilled to announce that Berghahn Books has been shortlisted for the Frankfurt Book Fair Academic & Professional Publisher of the Year Award from the Independent Publishers’ Guild. We are in excellent company alongside fellow nominees Bloomsbury Publishing, Policy Press, and SAGE Publishing.
In shortlisting Berghahn Books, a first-time entrant, the judges remarked:
Berghahn Books is nominated for these Awards for the first time, some two decades after it was founded. Judges admired the way the business has been nurtured through growth, and saw evidence of rigorous, high quality content and commercial success in 2015. It worked hard on digital publishing and social media too. “Berghahn has been going for a long time now but it is constantly coming up with new ideas.”
According to the IPG, this year’s awards attracted a record number of submissions “reflecting the vibrancy and diversity of independent publishing in the UK. Judges, who compiled the shortlists over two intensive days of discussion, commented that the standard of entries was higher than ever before, and competition was extremely strong in many of the categories.“
IPG chief executive Bridget Shine said: “Competition for the IPG Independent Publishing Awards gets tougher every year—but the strength of this year’s nominations was remarkable. We congratulate all the IPG members who entered the Awards and thank our judges for the care they have taken over these shortlists. Every company and individual on these lists should feel very proud.”
UPDATE:
The awards were announced on 3 March 2016, and we offer a hearty congratulations to Policy Press for winning IPG Academic & Professional Publisher of the Year 2016! We’re thrilled to be shortlisted even if not to win.
Today is International Museum Day!
Every year since 1977, International Museum Day is coordinated by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) and organised worldwide around May 18. This day is an occasion to raise awareness on how important museums are in the development of society.
The event highlights a specific theme each year that is at the heart of the international museum community’s preoccupations. The theme this year is Museums for a Sustainable Society. In honor of this event, we’d like to offer FREE ACCESS to the article “Assessing Museums Online: The Digital Heritage Sustainability (DHS) Framework” by Ana Luisa Sánchez Laws (from the second volume of the new journal Museum Worlds).
