Advertising
The Antwerp Bibliophile Society and the magazine The Golden Compasses reach a relatively small,
but very targeted audience.
That is why we offer advertising opportunities in the print magazine, in the PDF edition of articles and on the association's website.
Combined advertising in multiple media is possible.
The information below can be downloaded as a media card in PDF format.
The print magazine
The Golden Compasses is an international peer reviewed magazine, dedicated to book history and culture. It has been published since 1923. Each issue has approximately 120 pages.
The magazine is professionally designed and printed. The reader is informed about book scientific research in Flanders, the Netherlands, and beyond, in the form of articles, shorter contributions, reports on acquisitions of Flemish heritage libraries and book reviews.
