By Dianna Dilworth 

Non-profit feminist poetry imprint Alice James Books has released an iOS app.

The app allows readers to read the publisher’s titles, purchase new e-books and listen to audiobooks. The app also features Backlist, a free subscription-based service that allows readers to access backlist books for free. The app is available through a partnership with John Joynt, General Manager of Digital Publishing at Folium Partners.

“We are grateful for Folium Partners’ generosity and partnership, which has afforded us the exciting and innovative opportunity of building and launching this new app, Alice James,” stated
Carey Salerno, executive editor of Alice James Books. “It is deeply satisfying whenever we are able to respond to the growing needs of our readership, and we are particularly looking forward to the unique offering of Backlist, an exclusive program that enables users to discover and read AJB books for free via the app.”
