The print shortages have left both large and small retailers scrambling, though a huge company like Amazon can more easily absorb the effect of lost sales than a small independent store.

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), which will help catalog worlds around other stars, also launched as part of a new generation of telescopes that includes the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the successor to Hubble Space Telescope. The timing turned out to be fortuitous, with TESS launching just a few months before the reigning champ in planet-spotting, the Kepler Space Telescope, was put permanently into sleep mode. Unfortunately, 2018 saw the announcement of yet another delay for the launch of JWST.

It is every media company’s primary goal to figure out a way to make money that isn’t reliant on ads. That’s why, over the last few years, numerous organizations have built out their various apps, services, and subscriptions. Lest we forget when, over a year ago, the New York Times put up a hard paywall on its Cooking website and app, which offered the newspaper’s years of recipe archives.

Another reason why digital book sales declined last year is because cookery and humour are simply better in print – and last year’s bestseller lists were populated by books by the fitness guru Joe Wicks, the Ladybird Books for Grown-ups series and Enid Blyton parodies.

Compendium, which is better known in the gift market than in the publishing industry, has landed for the first time on PW’s list of fast-growing publishers after 2017 sales jumped 38% from 2015. Its title output went up 21% in the past three years, with 35 frontlist releases in 2017, up from 29 in 2015. The Seattle-based company specializes in publishing children’s books, gift books, guest books, notebooks, and journals, as well as greeting cards, boxed note cards, stationery, and pop-up cards, although trade books do account for a portion of its overall sales.
