Recap and Photos from 5/19 Event

22 alums, both old and new, joined us at the beautiful downtown Kimmel location to hear about digital trends in both the magazine and book publishing world.

For those who could not attend, we hope to make the PowerPoints available and a list of useul urls to subscribe to for digital publishing information. For those who did attend, what was the most useful and/or surprising piece of information that you learned from the event?

And don't forget to keep July 14th free for our next meetup, which will be open to all members of the NYU Publishing Association. Location and time to come.

Happy Memorial Day,
Karina, Joanne, Ania, and Karen
