The Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group, Inc. is one of the largest and fastest growing independent publishers and distributors in North America.

The company publishes under a dozen imprints in virtually all fields in the humanities and social sciences. While celebrating our 35th anniversary in 2010, we will publish over 1,500 new academic, reference, and general interest books and 11 journals.

We also own National Book Network (NBN)- one of North America's largest distributors of independent trade book publishers and NBN International, a leading distributor of independent publishers in the United Kingdom.

The company employs 650 people in Lanham, Maryland (headquarters); Blue Ridge Summit, Pennsylvania (distribution center); New York City; Toronto; Chicago; Boulder, Colorado; and Plymouth, United Kingdom.

More than 20,000 new books have been published since the company was founded in 1975 by Raymond D. Fellers, PhD, and Chairman Stanley D. Plotnick, CPA. Its President and CEO, Jed Lyons, joined the company later that year. We remain a privately held, independent business 35 years later.
