  • Description: The supply chain issues facing the book business this holiday season and beyond were years in the making and there are no quick fixes, speakers at the webinar “Publishing Industry Supply Chain Challenges and Opportunities,” presented by PW with support from Westchester Publishing Services on October 6, said. The knowledge that there is a paper and printer crunch has also led to something else that has become a characteristic of the pandemic: panic buying. “Since supply has dropped, there’s been a little bit of stocking up, or paper hoarding,” noted Baehr. Distributors and wholesalers have warned their accounts to stock up on titles early in anticipation of a difficult holiday season, and Gallagher said that many stores have already placed orders.
