==Media== [[File:Leipzig Ri.-Le.-Str 6.jpg|thumb|MDR, one of Germany's public broadcasters]] *[[Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk|MDR]], one of Germany's public broadcasters, has its headquarters and main television studios in the city. It provides programmes to various TV and radio networks and has its own symphony orchestra, choir and a ballet. *''Leipziger Volkszeitung'' (''LVZ'') is the city's only daily newspaper. Founded in 1894, it has published under several different forms of government. The monthly magazine ''Kreuzer'' specializes in culture, festivities and the arts in Leipzig. Leipzig was also home to the world's first daily newspaper in modern times. The ''[[Einkommende Zeitungen]]'' were first published in 1650. *Leipzig has one daily or semi-daily English-language publication, ''The Leipzig Glocal''. It is an online-based magazine and blog that caters to an international as well as local audience.<ref>{{cite web |title="ABOUT US."

Few are left after the years of economic decline during the [[German Democratic Republic]], during which time Frankfurt developed as a much more important publishing centre. [[Reclam]], founded in 1828, was one of the large publishing houses to move away. Leipzig still has a book fair, but Frankfurt's is far bigger. *The German Library (Deutsche Bücherei) in Leipzig is part of [[German National Library|Germany's National Library]]. Its task is to collect a copy of every book published in German.<ref>[[German National Library]]</ref>
