Publishers

Publishers allows you to manage the publishing companies.

Although the original intention of the entity is to represent a company as a whole, such as Kodansha, you can opt to create a publisher entry for each imprint, such as Vertical.

A book can have multiple publishers, as there's some cases where two or more publishers does a partnership to release a particular book or series, although it's not that common.
