Is it

Indie?

How can I tell if a book on Amazon is indie or traditionally published?

As of right now, the way to tell whether a book is indie or traditionally publish is that Amazon Services type books (the way the used to identify indie books) will have no specific publishing house information.

However, our books (which are indie pubbed) show up under the publisher “Literary Symmetry” because we have a legitimate business registration with MyIdentities (the company that distributes ISBNs). So, if you are curious as to whether the book is indie and it has an obscure publishing name, the best thing to do is to google the name identified under “Publisher.”
