History
Book Industry Communication (BIC), a trade standards group for electronic commerce and supply chain efficiency, awarded Berg its BIC Product Data Excellence Gold Award in 2007-2008[3] and its e4books project accredited Berg in 2008.[4] Berg won the Independent Publishers Guild's 2008 Publishing Technology E-Publishing Award for its collection of profitable digital strategies in March 2008.[5]
As of March 2008, Berg published thirteen journals.[6] In September 2008, Bloomsbury Publishing agreed to buy Oxford International Publishers, trading as Berg Publishers.[7] Since 2013, all Berg titles are published under the Bloomsbury name (under the imprint Bloomsbury Academic).
