  • The Black-Sheep of the Canadian Book Trade: an Exploration of the Current State of Self-Publishing in Canada
    THE BLACK-SHEEP OF THE CANADIAN BOOK TRADE: AN EXPLORATION OF THE CURRENT STATE OF SELF-PUBLISHING IN CANADA ELIZAVETA POLIAKOVA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION & CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO OCTOBER 2019 ©ELIZAVETA POLIAKOVA, 2019 Abstract The following thesis explores the exclusion of the self-publisher from the publishing sector in Canada. Even though the self-publisher has been a part of the Canadian publishing sector since the 1960s, this type of business model is not acknowledged as a legitimate form of book production. The thesis utilizes mixed methods to create a metanarrative of how the self-publisher is viewed in the publishing industry. The quantitative portion of the thesis employs descriptive statistics in order to summarise the data of how the Canada Book Fund was distributed over a three-year period from 2016-2018. The qualitative portion utilizes a narrative policy analysis of various government documents including the Canada Book Fund guidelines, Creative Canada policy framework, and the guidelines of the different provincial art councils. Through this analysis the study highlights the discourse around self-publishing and how the self-publisher is excluded from the funding models. Furthermore, the reports of the key players of the industry similarly do not acknowledge the self-publisher as a legitimate member of the book trade. The last section investigates what concepts/themes/ideas self-publishers emphasise about the self-publishing industry themselves, which are agency and legitimacy. Through recognizing the discourse linked to the self-publishing infrastructure, the thesis concludes with some suggestion on how to alter this infrastructure in order for the self-publisher to become a legitimate member of the Canadian publishing industry.

  • BRITISH COLUMBIA GOVERNMENT to PROCLAIM 3Rd BC BOOK DAY, APRIL 13Th, 2016
    BRITISH COLUMBIA GOVERNMENT TO PROCLAIM 3rd BC BOOK DAY, APRIL 13th, 2016 March 23rd, 2016 For Immediate Release Book publishers in British Columbia are both versatile and tenacious as they adapt to shifts in the industry and broaden their activities, while continuing to create works that reflect their region, BC, Canada and the world back to their readers. Featuring voices both old and new, books by BC publishers share important stories, histories and insights. Winning national and international awards and exporting titles to markets throughout the globe, these activities support reading and writing communities and strengthen the creative economy of the province. On April 13th, 2016 the Legislature will host the third annual BC Book Day. The Honourable Judith Guichon, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia; the Honourable Linda Reid, Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia; and MLAs and their staff will meet with the province’s publishers, authors, writers’ festival directors, librarians and booksellers to enjoy BC books in both print and e-formats. Following the display, a proclamation declaring April 13th as BC Book Day will be read in the Legislature before it goes into session. The day marks another yearly celebration of BC publishers and their accomplishments, of which there are many. Despite significant changes in the industry in recent years with the introduction of ebooks and the closure of many independent bookstores, over 30 publishing houses continue to operate throughout BC producing a collective title base of 10,059 active print ISBNs. To better share these works with librarians, booksellers and the public, on November 17, 2015 the Association of Book Publishers of BC, as directed by their member publishers, launched BC Books Online, a collection of over 8,500 BC-published books and ebooks available through a microsite powered by 49th Shelf.
