Folio, also known as Folio: The Magazine of Magazine Management and Folio: magazine, was a trade magazine for the magazine industry.[2][3][4][5] The magazine was established in 1972 and became known as "the bible of the magazine publishing industry".[6]

Associated initiatives included The FOLIO: Show, a magazine industry trade show and conference; FOLIO: 400, a comprehensive review of major American magazines; The FOLIO: Ad Guide, analyzing magazine advertising; and the FOLIO: Source Book, a buyer's guide for publishers.[1]

The publishers of Folio also organized the Eddie & Ozzie Awards in recognition of high-quality magazines, and inducted new members into the Editorial & Design Hall of Fame.

The magazine covered various financial and publishing aspects of the magazine publishing industry.[7] Folio: was a "vertical" publication "aimed at people who hold different jobs within" the magazine publishing industry.[8] Many stories focused on a particular periodical.

Folio: produced two special annual editions:

Publication history[edit]

Folio: was founded in 1972 by Joe Hanson of Hanson Publications, Inc.[1] Hanson Publications was acquired by Cowles Media Company in 1988,[1] which was then acquired by Primedia Inc. in 1998.[11]

In 2001, under a joint venture, Folio: and a group of other trade magazines that reported on the media industry were put under the editorial control of Steven Brill.[12] In 2003, Folio: top editor Cable Neuhaus was fired,[13] eventually replaced with Geoff Lewis.[14]

In 2004, Primedia sold Folio: and a sister publication, Circulation Management, to a joint venture with Red 7 Media.[15] Red 7 was acquired by Access Intelligence in 2011.[16][17]

Folio: ceased print publication in 2018 and stopped publishing digitally in 2020,[18] with the publisher promising to continue to support its other industry activities.[19]

The Eddie & Ozzie Awards presented awards in various categories. [20][21]
