Paths in Publishing

PIPCAST is moving to a once-a-month schedule on a trial basis, for reasons that will be revealed in the next episode about Career Pivots :)

Hello Twitter/X friends, followers, PIPsters! After much thought and consideration, PIP will be leaving this platform and moving solely the Bluesky. Come say hi! We will be posting all of your favorite programs regularly. You can always find us where the sky is blue 💙💙💙

>:(

We know there is much to think about right now. Let's take this opportunity to continue to foster this beautiful community and strengthen our connections during a challenging time. Love to you all.

Please use the code ACW40 to get 40% off the book when ordering directly through Princeton University Press.

Happy Friday, folks. We hope everyone is doing okay. To add some goodness to your TL, we're pleased to announce the next PAGES bookclub meeting! We will meet on Dec 5 @ noon EST. Our book this month is: Academic Writing as if Readers Matter, by Leonard Cassuto (PUP). Join us!

🚨🚨Job Alert🚨🚨 This is a great opportunity! Check it out, check it out!

You already know it's #TermTuesday, but did you know that it's also #OAWeek? The #OpenAccess model is an global publishing movement that extends the reach and impact of scholarly work & promotes equitable public engagement. Not all presses publish OA, but others are known for it!

Job alert! 👀👀👀

Episode 25 of the PIPCAST is live!🎉🎉 We're joined by @ErikBeranek to talk about split roles in the UP world. Go give it a listen at the links below!🎧🔊📱💻👂 Substack: open.substack.com/pub/pathsinpub… Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/0y28oQ…

HAPPENING TODAY!! See you all soon 🎉🎉🎉

‼️Please note: Both marketing and publicity require huge efforts from a publisher's staff. Additionally, marketing and publicity work to ensure their efforts are synchronous and complimentary to one another. ‼️

It's #TermTuesday! And we're back to talk about publicity. Publicity is a branch of marketing, but the two slightly differ. While marketing focuses on promoting the book directly, publicity focuses on getting others to promote the book. In both cases, the book garners attention!

We can't wait to see you all soon!

You can still order the book from the University of Chicago Press with a 30% discount when you use the code PATHS30. Don't forget to register for the meeting at the link below! pupress.zoom.us/meeting/regist…

PAGES is meeting this Thursday, October 17 to discuss Reading the Room: A Bookseller's Tale by Paul Yamazaki! We'll be joined by Lesley Rains (publicity manager at the University of Pittsburgh Press) who will give some insight about her experience as a former bookstore owner. 🥳

Check it out!! 👀👀

It's Tuesday and we're back with another term! Today we're talking about marketing and what this means for publishers. Marketing is an essential part of book publishing. Next week, we'll think about publicity and how the two differ! 📖📖 #TermTuesday
