Hello, my name is George Hart and I am a communication studies major at State University of New York Geneseo. I am studying the interaction between for profit manga publishers in the US and the relatively new practice of translating Japanese versions and posting them online, known as scanlation. I am looking for individuals who are willing to participate in an interview. The interview will take place over email if no other preferred method of communication is specified. To participate, you must meet the following criteria:

1.Be at least 18 years of age
2.Be in a position of significance in either a scanlation group or publishing company that publishes manga

All information shared in the interview will be kept confidential. To ensure participants privacy, names will be omitted or changed to pseudonyms in the final report in any presentation about this research. If you are willing to participate please contact me by email at geh2@geneseo.edu. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your consideration.
