Society for Book Research in Austria. Promotes in-depth research on the book trade in Austria and co-ordinates study in the field, keeping a running bibliography of new publications and points to deficits in book history scholarship.
SHARP works in concert with a number of scholarly organizations around the world to encourage the study of book history, broadening our resources and allowing us to share information. As part of this scholarly outreach, many SHARP members serve as liaisons to scholarly organizations. Their role is to facilitate communications between the organizations in a variety of ways. A list of current liaisons is available online.
