HarperCollins Australia
HarperCollins occupies a unique place in Australian and New Zealand publishing. In both nations, we are the oldest publisher and the most forward thinking in terms of our transition to the global digital world of today. Owned by News Corps, we published ABC Books, Head of Zeus and Harlequin books. Our imprints include Angus & Robertson, Fourth Estate, Harper Voyager and Avon Romance. Today HarperCollins produces print and e-books, generally simultaneously, and was one of the first Australian publishers to turn much of the deep backlist into e-books to broaden the life of a book. Our first app, Donna Hay’s what’s for dinner?, was launched in late 2013. Short-run digital printing and print on demand technology are used to keep books available in print, while the Harper 360 program exports print editions directly into the US and the UK.
