THE PUBLISHING WORK

L. T. NICOLA

The publishing work in the United States was one of the most important matters that the Association had to deal with. After this question had been very fully and carefully considered, it was decided to transfer the publishing interests of the Association (in the United States), to the two denominational publishing houses, — the Review and Herald Publishing Company, and the Pacific Press Publishing Company, — thus leaving the book business in countries outside of the United States, still in the hand of the General Conference Association.GCB July 1, 1896, page 708.16

The transfer was effected on Nov. 11, 1896; so that after this, all orders for publications issued in this country, should be sent to the publishing houses of their branch offices.GCB July 1, 1896, page 708.17

A resolution was also adopted, requesting the International Tract Society to turn over the Bible Students’ Library, the Apples of Gold Library, and the Religious Liberty Library, to the publishing houses.GCB July 1, 1896, page 709.1
