HarperCollins to close warehouses in deal with R.R. Donnelley

HarperCollins Publishers will close its last two U.S. warehouses in Scranton, Penn., and Nashville as it hands over U.S. distribution duties to R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

The two companies have agreed to create one centralized warehouse that will become the distribution site for all HarperCollins U.S. titles, including those published by its Christian publishing divisions Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, according to Publisher’s Weekly.
