Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Data gathered from selected supplements (1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, and 2000) to the Children's Catalog (H.W. Wilson), are analyzed to describe the corporate ownership of children's book imprints and assess trends and changes, including the decline of independent publishing entities in the early 1980s, the relative stability in the percentage of corporations that produce both large and small proportions of children's books, and the accelerated changes across the children's publishing industry during the past ten years. Conclusions address the influence of corporate ownership on the development, contents, accessibility, and marketing of books for children.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
