Joint PN/PW Dailies for Frankfurt Book Fair

By Carmen 

Publishing News announces that it will join forces with Publishers Weekly to produce joint dailies at Frankfurt Book Fair. Four editions of the PN/PW Dailies will be published and distributed from October 10-13, 2007 and will include news and features from both the PN and PW editorial teams, providing the most comprehensive publication for the industry’s biggest international book fair.

Fred Newman, Chairman and founder of PN said: “We have been talking about a Book Fair Daily partnership with our transatlantic counterparts at PW for some time. It seemed an obvious way of delivering in-depth coverage and understanding of the publishing and bookselling scene on both sides of the pond and I’m delighted that we’ll be offering even better Dailies to all Frankfurt Book Fair exhibitors and visitors this year.” PW Publisher and Vice President, David Nudo commented: “This is an exciting development for us and reflects PW’s desire to have a more international focus. We have always been great admirers of the Publishing News Frankfurt Book Fair Dailies so they were the obvious partners for this venture. In addition, the power of the two publications together will enhance advertising sales opportunities for both UK and US publishers.”
