Not surprisingly, Hurricane Sandy left most people in the New York City publishing world at home on Tuesday. Here is a list of different houses' status. We will try to update this throughout the day, as more information surfaces. Please contact us with updates on Twitter @PublishersWkly. (Publishers Weekly's email is currently down, and our Manhattan office is closed, but staffers with power will be monitoring Twitter and other social media.)
Macmillan is without power and email is down, due to outages in the Flatiron Building, where it is housed. (The publisher's warehouse, however, remains open and operational.)

Penguin is currently closed and will remain closed on Wednesday.
Hachette's office is closed, but company email is working.
Bloomsbury's office is closed, but company email is working.
Abrams is currently closed and company email is down.
Kensington's office is closed, but an employee reports that the building has power. A decision has not yet been made about whether the office will be open on Wednesday.
