Delete. I did a search and while there are some results with books, they're almost all copies of Wikipedia articles or business mentions in various magazines. There was only one book hit where it looked like the business was mentioned, and that was with a book called "Out of the Margins" [1] Much of the other book hits were for things that SMB had published. In a general search all of the hits came back with business generated content, such as entries for books they released and listings for their business. It looks like it's one of those businesses that does do good business, but just hasn't gotten a lot of notice for what they've done and to be honest, probably never will because it doesn't have the press-grabbing resources that other publishers might have. It's frustrating, but unfortunately the way it so often turns out to be as far as women's publishing goes.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 15:52, 24 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]

I reckon that "Out of the Margins" reference is likely to be for the other publisher of that name also at AfD? AllyD (talk) 16:35, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per lack of significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Cusop Dingle (talk) 17:54, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
