Big news from Lynx, I wish them all the best and hope their great series of publications can continue
A MESSAGE FROM LYNX EDICIONS’S FOUNDERS:
Dear friends and colleagues,
As many of you probably already know, our publishing house, Lynx Edicions, has been through complicated times as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The challenges of the public health crisis itself, the direct economic repercussions on our company and the worldwide impact on publishing in general have been difficult to navigate. As the Founders of Lynx, we have tirelessly studied all the possible options, without ruling out any, to restore the company’s economic viability.
Today we are happy to share the good news that the Lynx editorial brand and its activity in the world of natural history publishing will continue with a sound future. Two outstanding members of the Lynx team—Yolanda Aguayo, Financial Director, and Amy Chernasky, Editorial Coordinator—have started a new company, Alada, that will take charge of the commercialization of all current Lynx publications and will continue to develop new projects in-line with those you have come to trust and enjoy from Lynx. Please read their presentation below.
We have lived intensely the past 32 years of Lynx’s existence with a passion for our projects, which hopefully we have shared with the public, especially for the Handbook of the Birds of the World and Handbook of the Mammals of the World series. Our accomplishments would not have been possible without the support of our customers and collaborators, to whom we are eternally grateful. It has been an honour to serve our community, to promote the dissemination of knowledge and to encourage the conservation of our natural world. It is now time for us to pass the torch on to the next leaders, but we are doing so with great pleasure to know that it is going to experienced, loving hands that will carry it into a bright future.
With thanks and best wishes,
Ramón Mascort, Jordi Sargatal and Josep del Hoyo
A MESSAGE FROM THE ALADA TEAM:
