OICPS at the 2010 London Book Fair

The Oxford International Centre for Publishing Studies was widely represented at the 2010 London Book Fair. Our students assisted the LBF with organising seminars during the fair itself,  and we also ran four extremely well-attended seminars  on a wide variety of topics chaired by academics from the Centre, including one on  the “Mid-list crisis”  which featured in the Bookseller.com the following day. We also held a very lively and well-attended reception at our booth on the Tuesday evening.  Despite the lower attendance figures, traffic to the OICPS booth was steady, and there was lots of interest in our MA in Publishing, our Certificate in Journals Publishing, and our bespoke training and consultancy work. 

Prior to the LBF, the Centre held a week-long International Publishers Training Programme in association with the UK Publishers Association and the British Council, attracting over 20 international delegates. The delegates then went on to attend the LBF itself, some for the first time. The success of the programme is reflected in one delegate’s comment “Outstanding people sharing their ideas and knowledge”.
