A Lovely Kind of Madness: Small and independent publishing in Australia
In 2007 SPUNC commissioned a report, researched and written by Kate Freeth, to address the lack of formal information about the small and independent publishing sector in Australia and to provide SPUNC with information and inspiration to guide development of support initiatives.
Freeth’s research revealed a sector featuring ‘a healthy mix of established presses and new ventures, across all genres of publishing’ that is ‘characterised by a dedication to publishing new writers, providing high-quality content, and maintaining the diversity of content published in Australia.’
A copy of the report, entitled ‘A Lovely Kind of Madness: Small and independent publishing in Australia’ is available here as a pdf:
