Presses Formerly Distributed by SPD: Where They Are Now


On March 28, Small Press Distribution (SPD) announced that its operations had ceased, effective immediately. CLMP has compiled the following list of presses that were distributed by SPD at the time of its closure and have added their new distributor, or current method of fulfilling orders, as we receive this information. Please consider supporting these presses in their vital work by purchasing their books from their new distributors and/or directly from their websites, making donations to those that are nonprofits, and following them on social media. Publishers, if you see something missing or incorrect below, please email project director Lauren Rosemary Hook.
