Claim: Broadview Press operated out of LePan's home and soon focused exclusively on the academic market.
Evidence: In its early years, Broadview operated out of LePan's home in Peterborough, Ontario, publishing a small number of titles for both trade and academic markets. With the publication of books such as The Broadview Anthology of Poetry, The Broadview Reader, and the first few titles in the Broadview Editions series in the early 1990s, Broadview began to focus exclusively on the academic market.
