Abstract: | In the Greek publishing industry, tradition and the desire for innovation go hand in hand. The industry is influenced by European
developments in publishing and bookselling in terms of book promotion methods, the role of chain bookstores and the impact
of information technology. Greece shares the features of other small book markets in Europe, whilst retaining the individuality
defined by the Greek language and the country’s cultural and social conditions. This article provides an overview of the publishing
industry in Greece through a review of the relevant literature and the available statistics. This work also focuses on the
need to develop publishing skills through publishing education and continuous professional development. |
