ATON publishing house was founded by Konstantinos Sp. Staikos in Athens in 2010, continuing the publishing and printing work of KOTINOS, whose establishment dates back to 1989. The main subject matter of the publications, all of which are bilingual, consists of the history of Books and Libraries in Western Civilisation and the evolution of Greek books from antiquity to the present day. ATON collaborates with foreign publishing houses such as Hes & de Graaf in the Netherlands and OAK KNOLL PRESS in Delaware, USA, which are also its exclusive representatives in their respective regions.
