Bookworld launches Small Press website; free book with every order

In an effort to draw attention to the small presses that it distributes, Sarasota, Fla.–based Bookworld launched smallpresscentral.com earlier this month. Consumers can purchase books from any of Bookworld’s 180 clients, which include one-book houses like Nutrition Times Press as well as larger houses for which Bookworld distributes Spanish-language titles.

“Small publishers aren’t getting enough attention,” Bookworld Companies chairman Ronald Ted Smith said. “I would love to find a way to spotlight more of them.” As part of that effort, smallpresscentral.com, which links to Bookworld.com’s shopping cart, is offering a free book with every order from a selected group of titles.
