CRICKET MEDIA PARTNERS WITH ZINIO TO OFFER ITS DIGITAL ISSUES TO LIBRARIES ACROSS THE GLOBE

Cricket Media Group Ltd. and Zinio, the world's largest digital newsstand, have entered a distribution agreement that will incorporate Cricket Media magazine titles into the Zinio for libraries program.

Since its inception in 2012, the Zinio for libraries service, as distributed by Recorded Books Inc., has expanded rapidly to become the leading digital magazine service for libraries worldwide. Cricket Media's digital magazines will become available to subscribing libraries and their patrons in May, alongside the almost 3,000 titles already participating in the program.

"We are excited to add Cricket Media's titles to our portfolio," said Joan Sola, executive vice-president, chief global markets, Zinio. "We continue to evolve the service as a whole and believe these titles will further enhance our ZfL proposition, in particular for public and school (K-12) libraries."

"Having the opportunity to expand our reach to thousands of libraries worldwide is very exciting," said Katya Andresen, chief executive officer, Cricket Media. "We are delighted with the high demand for our content from librarians across the world and we're looking forward to working with Zinio to make our award-winning content available in more and more ways."
