Victorian societies for text publication → Text publication societies – Having discovered this article, I'm planning to develop it further. In particular, I feel it's misleading at present in implying that the model of subscription publication societies was a Victorian experiment that failed: many of these societies are still going strong. (It is true that the surviving societies are mostly record societies, i.e. publishers of archival rather than literary texts; and they are, of course, facing new challenges in the digital age.) To incorporate these perspectives, and bring the story into the 20th and 21st centuries, will make the present rather cumbersome title misleading, so I propose to move the article to Text publication societies.
