Buchmarkt (spelling: BuchMarkt ) is an independent trade magazine founded in 1966 for the German-speaking book trade. It appears monthly, usually on the first Tuesday of the month. The magazine's subtitle is Das Ideenmagazin für den Buchhandel .
history
In 1966 the idea arose to publish an independent specialist magazine for the German-speaking book trade. On May 10, 1966, Klaus Werner, Eberhardt Dickert and Christian von Zittwitz founded the Junge Edition K. Werner GmbH publishing house for this purpose . It was later renamed Buchmarkt Verlag K. Werner GmbH . The first issue was presented in 1966 at the Frankfurt Book Fair .
At the beginning, Buchmarkt appeared in two editions , but grew every year. In 1967 there were already four issues, in 1968 six. The following year eight, 1970 ten; and since 1971 Buchmarkt has been published monthly.
Christian von Zittwitz is now the sole partner and in 1997 relocated the company headquarters from Düsseldorf to Meerbusch- Ilverich . Since 1998 there has also been an online offer for the book market . In 2006 the magazine celebrated its 40th birthday with an anniversary issue: Industry highlights from 40 years of the book market .
In 2009, Christian von Zittwitz was the first journalist ever to receive the golden badge of honor from the German Book Trade Association.
