After her remarriage to Claude Chevallon, she published works that included both their names. When Chevallon died in 1537, she took over sole management of the business and began identifying herself as “widow Claude Chevallon”. But after 1538 she began identifying her works with “At the house of Charlotte Guillard”, and using that identification printed 158 titles. At its peak, her shop had at least 4 presses and employed anywhere from 12-25 workers; she also, as was typical of printers, ran a bookstore that held a stock of 13,000 books.
For information on this and additional books printed by Guillard, see the List of books.
