ist publishing team wants to support each other in these uncertain times. We believe that it is important to take care of our community and make it even stronger. During three years of active work, ist has made a lot of friends who support the publishing, not only in its mission to publish and distribute books, but also in the forming of the context for debates, organizing educational programs, forming healthy cultural environment, and work with niche (but important) topics of art, society, and public space.
The pandemic limits us in our usual activities. However, at this stage, we have the ambition to work with those who believe in book publishing and culture.
We announce an OPEN CALL for all those interested who want to learn more about the life of the small press, how we arrange and publish our books, how we work with the authors, translators, designers, and other participants of the publishing process.

The club doesn’t have any time limits. It includes monthly meetings with all the participants. You can leave the club at any time, but we are eager to build strong long-term relationships which are in shortage nowadays.
