Hi again everyone,

We got all of these announcements over the past few days, but I'm just now 
getting to them. My apologies for the delay!

Indiana University Press, founded in 1950 and located in Bloomington, Indiana - 
and the distinguished alma mater of our colleague Fred Slone - has signed our 
agreement, giving us world rights to its titles specializings in the 
humanities<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanities> and social 
sciences<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_sciences>. IU Press is currently 
one of the largest public university presses in the United 
States<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States>.   It publishes 140 new 
books<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book> annually, in addition to 29 academic 
journals<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_journal> and has a backlist of 
between 2-3,000 titles.  It will be giving us titles in EPUB and is distributed 
through Ingram's CoreSource.
Their titles include scholarly essays, fiction, poetry, and art in a wide range 
of subject areas including legal studies, feminist and American philosophy, 
Judaism and science, Middle East women's studies, feminist studies in religion, 
film, bioethics, folklore, African American and African studies and literature, 
electronic services, modern literature, Victorian studies, transnationalism,
