McSweeney's

McSweeney's Publishing is an American non-profit publishing house founded by editor Dave Eggers in 1998, headquartered in San Francisco. McSweeney's initially published only the literary journal'' Timothy McSweeney's Quarterly Concern'', but has grown to publish novels, books of poetry, and other periodicals.
The recipient of dozens of awards for its contributions to literature and publishing, McSweeney's was named the country's seventh most innovative media company for 2012, just behind Reddit, "for proving the value of print publishing.".〔(Fast Company Most Innovative Companies, 2012 )〕〔()〕
==Company history==

In December 2006, Advanced Marketing Services, which had been the parent company of McSweeney's distributor Publishers Group West (PGW) since 2002, declared bankruptcy. At the time of the filing, PGW owed McSweeney's about $600,000.〔(A financial thriller in the publishing world ) from the ''San Francisco Chronicle''〕 McSweeney's eventually accepted an offer from Perseus Books Group to take over distribution; the deal paid McSweeney's 70 percent of the money owed by PGW.〔(Indie Publishers Act All Indie ), from ''New York'' magazine〕 In June 2007, McSweeney's held a successful sale and eBay auction which helped make up the difference.〔(McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Book Distribution, Bankruptcy, and McSweeney's )〕
McSweeney's has expanded its operations into partnerships with companies including eyewear one-for-one Warby Parker and accommodations marketplace Airbnb. The musician Beck has worked in tandem with Warby Parker and McSweeney's to design a custom pair of spectacles. In addition to its FastCompany award, McSweeney's has received "best of" awards and plaudits from SF Weekly and other several other publications.
The company's archives, including rare material from its founding and its early history, are held in the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas.
In October 2014, founder Dave Eggers announced that McSweeney's will become a nonprofit and began asking for donations for several projects on its website. Eggers cited declining sales and increased opportunities for raising funds as reasons for McSweeney's long-discussed change to a nonprofit publishing house.
