As the publishing world processes the massive restructuring at HarperCollins, insiders have identified the names of more of the employees who were laid-off as the publisher shuttered the Collins division.

According to the NY Observer, "numerous sources" confirmed that editors Nancy Miller, Serena Jones, Gillian Blake, and Caroline Sutton were cut in the restructuring. In addition, Collins Publicity director Paul Olsewski, Rayo Publisher Rene Alegria were also named in the lay-offs.

The article also quoted spokesperson Erin Crum:

"'Collins was opened in 2004,' she said. 'So, you know, it was a long time ago.' Ms. Crum's implication was understood: A lot has changed since then, and HarperCollins' new CEO, Brian Murray--who assumed his duties last summer--had to react to conditions decisively, even if it meant putting the puppy down before it had a chance to grow into its paws."
