Regarding the publication and distribution of internal books, both Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China and the former State Publishing Bureau have clear regulations. However, recently, some publishing units and publishing houses set up their own distribution departments, which violated the regulations on the wholesale and sales of internal books, causing some internal books to flow into the open market, causing adverse effects in society and bringing confusion to book distribution. In order to strengthen the management of this work, we hereby reiterate some regulations.
All publishing units should strictly manage the books issued internally and establish a regular inspection system. Anyone who violates the internal book distribution regulations will be dealt with strictly according to the seriousness of the case.
