Small press is a term often used to describe publishers with annual sales below a certain level. Commonly, in the USA, this is set at $50 million, after returns and discounts. Small presses are also defined as those that publish an average of less than 10 titles per year. The terms "small press" and "independent press" are often used interchangeably, with "independent press" defined as publishers that are not part of large conglomerates or multinational corporations. Defined this way, these presses make up approximately half of the market share of the book publishing industry. [1] [May 2007]
