Amanda Ridout at @boldwoodbooks.bsky.social - "We know that in the US consumers love our content [...], and all I can do as a publisher is to urge people to look at the US library market..." she says, along with some lovely recommendations for Ingram Content Group services - #IPGSC
Breakout session on US library sales with Jacqueline Sells and Carolyn Morris @ipsuk.bsky.social, Stephanie Anderson of the New York Public Library and Amanda Ridout @boldwoodbooks.bsky.social. Some eye-catching stats on the size of the public and academic library networks #ipgsc
At #IPGSC Sarah Benton and Jonathan Perdoni of @bonnierbooksuk.bsky.social talk about market challenges - volume declines, world events, economic pressures. How do publishers respond?
Culture, creativity, publishing experience, AI and realistic expectations around growth all play a part for them.

Couldn't be more excited to be at today's #IPGSC, from the brilliant @independentpublishersguild.com - we'll be following along throughout the day - right now, Jonathan Douglas is giving an impassioned overview of the importance of the Year of Reading - #GoAllIn in a wider societal context
