Yes. If you are producing a new major reference work, and have supporting literature describing the book, Dawson is more than willing to mail a leaflet to a targeted list of librarians. We find that our customers are more receptive to mailing pieces that offer an introductory discount. A pre-publication offer also gives us the opportunity to promote the new book on the Special Offers section of our website and on our web service enterBooks.com.

The main leaflet to give out is the A5-size "What's Wrong With McDonald's?". This is aimed at adults and all the criticisms in this leaflet have been verified during the McLibel Trial. It's also good to have some "What's Wrong With Ronald McDonald?" leaflets to give to children, and some "Do You Work For McDonald's?" leaflets for workers. Also, there are McDonald's Protest Pledge Forms available for people to sign.

The cost of leaflets is 12 pounds per 1,000 (6 pounds per 500, etc). If you are unable to afford all or some of this amount, don't worry - the important thing is that leaflets are distributed. In that case, please order leaflets from the McLibel Support Campaign (regardless of where you live). If you order leaflets, you will always be given mostly "What's Wrong With McDonald's?" leaflets with a small number of leaflets for children and workers.

We’ll also post your seminar on our web site calendar. If you’d like we can send out an email blast to our constituents based in your local zip code range.

Publicity, a form of PR, is a way of raising awareness through news or feature stories in the media. Studies have shown editorial space is 3.5 times more believable than paid advertising.

It is a large subsidiary of an even larger British parent company whose shares are quoted on the London Stock Exchange.

No. Dawson Creek is in the province of British Columbia and is Mile 0 of the Alaska Highway. Dawson City is in the Yukon Territory, is 300 miles north west of Whitehorse, Yukon (which is 950 miles north of Dawson Creek, B.C) and is on the Klondike Highway. You can get to Alaska through Dawson City and over the Top of the World Highway. Confusion has come about over the years because the cities' names are almost the same.

Tourdesign is not a publicist and we do not have any publicity materials available. We suggest you check the artist's website for more information.

Search engines are an important way to find opportunities for publicising your site. You will find a wealth of newsletters, discussion groups, mailing lists, resources and forums that can help promote your site. Two user-friendly search engines are http://www.ukmax.com and http://www.lycos.com. Become active in online mailing lists and discussion groups relating to your customers. If, for example, you sell gardening books, consider giving advice about how to grow wonderful window boxes.

Camargue will promote the launch meetings for the Clubs. Press releases will be sent out to the business section in all local newspapers.

That depends on what you are comparing it to. See how much a ? page ad is in your local newspaper, and compare that against the cost of a PR campaign. Public Relations is very labor intensive and requires discipline, follow-up, and strong media relations. And its results can last a long, long time.

Parson Place Press is a small publishing house with rather limited resources available for promotions and publicity. Therefore, while we will be glad to assist with a limited number of press releases by both email and fax, we simply cannot compete with the big budget publishers on television and radio and in magazines, newspapers, etc. As we grow in both number of titles published and income, we expect to do more of these kinds of promotions.

Yes, but there is no need to send us details. Please ensure that all books are allocated an ISBN and that bibliographic data is submitted to BookData from whom we take frequent data feeds to populate our internal and external databases with title information.

No. Although Dawson is a large multinational bookseller we carry no stock. Dawson operates a ‘virtual stock’ system. We receive stock level information from wholesalers, distributors and publishers throughout the day. Ordering is electronic and turn around in our warehouse extremely rapid.

Dawson maintains a database of millions of book titles published by thousands of publishers. We will do all we can to make your titles visible to our library customers. The amount of marketing we can undertake for individual books is limited but making timely, complete and accurate information available on the Dawson database is key to our marketing effort on your behalf.

Each May we hold a customer open day in the UK and in France. These Dawson Days are opportunities for publishers to exhibit their wares and to meet the acquisitions librarians who make purchasing decisions in academic institutions. Space is limited to so contact us if you wish to exhibit at a future Dawson Day.

If you need to a face-to-face meeting to discuss specific issues you are welcome to visit Dawson but please phone first to discuss in advance. Alternatively, we are always glad to meet publishers at events such as the London Book Fair. We are proud of our facilities and find that publishers are interested in seeing the scale and sophistication of our operation at Foxhills House. In 2003 we held a successful Open Day for Publishers and may repeat the exercise.

A.Yes, the Northern Lights can be seen very well in Dawson Creek and area. A place away from city lights is best for viewing the lights (a 10 minute drive in any direction from downtown). The best time of year to see the lights is August through March. It is difficult to see any of the Northern Lights in the summer months because of the long hours of sunlight in the north. A.Yes, there are plenty of service station/restaurant stops along the highway.
