Editor's Note: Shop Local; Read Local
You're part of a local scene, wherever you're based.

On the publishing side, Philadelphia has long been a center of STM publishing, with such stalwarts as Elsevier and Lippincott Williams & Wilkins/Wolters Kluwer. Philadelphia is home to two creative and idiosyncratic mid-size trade publishers, Running Press and Quirk Books, as well as a surprisingly large range of small independent book publishers. On the magazine side, we go from city mag — the strong and oft-controversial Philadelphia Magazine — to literary — the nearly 10-year-old non-profit Philadelphia Stories — and many options in between. And our local newspapers, the Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Daily News, still rake in Pulitzers, including, most recently, the Inky's 2012 nod for a series about violence in schools.
