Notebook closes, it’s official

The speculation of Thursday was confirmed yesterday with an official announcement from News Magazines about the closure of Notebook.

The closure is disappointing but probably for the best.  Now, if only some other publishers would take such a pragmatic view.

    Good to see notebook close, especially just after I got in 50 of the 2011 notebook diaries.
    Would have been nice to know that before we placed our order.

    This is a shame as we having been increasing our sales with this mag.

    Its always sad to see a prominent title die.

    Mark, any speculation as to why News Magazines didn’t attempt to reconfigure the magazine in its original format?

    Jarryd, no. Personally, I would have taken it back to its roots and made it more feminine.

    Just noticed that despite the recent announcemnt, the supposedly “final” Notebook out this week has an insert with a 12 month subscription offer. How bizarre!!!
