Welcome. This is the Asian Independent Publishing Wiki (AIPW), created to reflect on and survey the ecosystem of independent publishing in Asia. It is collectively developed by [[The Book Society]], [[Minguhong Mfg.]], [[Gyoranjong KR]], and everyone both within and beyond the Asian independent publishing network.

Independent publishing in Asia is dispersed and fragmentary, largely grounded in small-scale publishing led by individuals or collectives. While loose solidarities are formed through events such as book fairs and exhibitions, there is also a persistent lack of spaces for open interaction. The Asian Independent Publishing Wiki seeks to connect, through hyperlinks, the conditions that shape today’s independent publishing environment in Asia — including individuals, collectives, publishers, print shops, distributors, bookstores, and book fairs.

# How to Use

- Anyone is free to contribute to the Asian Independent Publishing Wiki. Anything related to the Asian independent publishing environment is welcome.
- The Asian Independent Publishing Wiki does not have a unified primary language. We believe this is an important characteristic of Asia, and therefore adopt it as a wiki policy, even at the cost of data inefficiency.
