Description

With all the new technology and information in the world, many can forget that books are still being published. We live in an “information rich economy” as Amanda Breccia, the Acquisitions Editor at Fairchild Books, has said. When reading about the fashion industry, readers expect the sites to be current, fast, and have attractive visual designs. Many books are published by Bloomsbury Publishing, the largest publisher of academic materials for visual arts in the world. The company publishes academic and professional books, adult-trade, and children’s books. Along with Bloomsbury Publishing, other divisions exist: Berg, Fairchild, and Applied Visual Arts (AVA). Fairchild Books has more than 250 titles on fashion illustration, history, textile science and more; they are the publisher of Women’s Wear Daily.
