Ohio Poetry Presses

For a long time I've wanted to compile a somewhat comprehensive listing of active Ohio poetry publishers.  For now I'm focusing on print (rather than purely online) publishing, and admittedly some of the following are more active than others. But here's what I've come up with off the top of my head. The list is woefully incomplete, I know, and I'm certain I'll think of a few more to add as soon as I hit the "Publish" button, but I hope you'll help me fill in as many of the missing Ohio poetry presses as possible.  Thank you!

Now I'm mulling the distinction between presses and publishers.

Eventually I want to compile two lists of Ohio-based poetry publishers:

(1) book/chapbook publishers (can include e-books)

(2) journals/periodicals (can include print and online)

For now, let's focus on the first (in which case something like Kenyon Review probably doesn't belong).

Wow, great list!
Yes, I agree it is worthwhile to separate the list of book (and chapbook) publishers from the periodical publishers (and some may be on both lists, of course)

Don't neglect these guys!

Thank you, Joel! I was totally unaware Two Dollar Radio had an Ohio base. I apologize for the oversight and will immediately add TDR to the list.

The address you have Poet's Haven linked to is incorrect. Please link to www.PoetsHaven.com. The old gallery URLS were done away with more than a year ago. Some of the other internal pages will be getting moved around soon, too, as I'm working on cleaning up and organizing how some things are presented.

Thanks! :-)

I'm very sorry for the bad link, VX - got it fixed now! Thanks for letting me know. I should've checked them all when I first posted this.
