announced a partnership to market Oratia’s Libro International books worldwide
(excluding the Americas and Australasia).

comes as a result of negotiations commenced at the October 2012 Frankfurt Book
Fair, at which New Zealand was country of honour.
“''The Gazelle
mission is to bring choice and availability to our customers, and the quality
of Oratia Media’s publishing in both trade and scholarly books left us in no
doubt that we just had to bring these books across the globe,” said Mark Trotter, Managing Director of Gazelle
Book Services.
“We are
delighted to be partnering with Gazelle,” said Oratia Media Managing Director,
Peter Dowling. “We launched Libro International in 2009 to connect New Zealand
and Italian authors with a world audience, and working with Mark and his team
is an important step in that direction.”
