Simon & Schuster
In 1979, the Nancy Drew books began to be published by Wanderer Books Simon & Schuster in paperback format. Though formatted differently from the original 56-volume series which continued under Grosset & Dunlap's control, these new books were published under the Nancy Drew Mystery Stories banner. These books feature increasingly contemporary cover illustrations and some books have multiple versions of the cover art. 8 volumes that had been published in paperback between 1979 and 1981 were subsequently reissued in hardcover format around 2005, and thus the table here has been shaped to include them in the hardcover series by Grosset & Dunlap, although their original existence had predominantly been in paperback editions from Wanderer.
Wanderer
During these volumes, the Stratemeyer Syndicate was involved up until its sale (and they had the last books ready). The main plot and formula of the books, however, stayed similar to the original Grosset & Dunlap series.

Minstrel editions
After volume 78, the series took a two-and-a-half year hiatus due to the closure of the Stratemeyer Syndicate and the sale of it to Simon & Schuster. The writing style of these books began to take a different direction than the previous books.

In 1986, Simon & Schuster, Inc. began publishing a spin-off series, The Nancy Drew Files, running concurrently with the main Nancy Drew Mystery Stories line. The Nancy Drew Files were aimed at an older, teenage audience, and is similar in style, target audience, and sensibilities with The Hardy Boys Casefiles. Starting in January 2014 Simon and Schuster is releasing this series as eBooks.
