The Edmund Gwenn Memorial Book Source List

$Id: publisher.lst,v 2.6 1994/04/08 15:02:43 meikle Exp $
$Revision: 2.6 $

Intro:

This file lists direct sources of scientific & technical books, 
from a Canadian perspective.  Direct means you get it from the 
source, as opposed to ordering through a bookstore:  I'd recommend 
trying your local bookstore first :-), but if the title you want is 
even mildly technical, you may not be able to find it locally, and 
it is often faster to go to the source.  Most scientific and technical 
publishers _will_ sell to human beings, just because it is so difficult
to find bookstores which can afford to stock their books.  Many of 
them are very good at direct selling:  ask about mailing lists in 
your areas of interest.  The list is for Canadian bookbuyers:  many 
publishers have distributors in Canada, or are here as branch plant 
subsidiaries, and the list will give the Canadian source, rather than 
the home office.

Ordering:

If you do plan to order direct, call to check cost and stock:
the prices change all the time, and you'll need to find out what 
the shipping and handling charges are.  And if the supplier's 
out of stock, you'll know that you're in for a delay.  I wouldn't 
recommend blindly mailing out cheques based on suspect price 
information -- this sounds like asking to have problems with
the order.  Specify how you would like your purchase shipped, 
and bear in mind that this ain't retail:  they may not offer
next-day door-to-door.  But it probably beats waiting for your
WH Smith branch to get it in. And, it probably bears repeating,
don't send credit card information in electronic mail...

Format:

The file lists mailing address, phone numbers, fax numbers, 
credit cards accepted, other publishers or imprints distributed, 
email address, and any comments.  Yeah, a more formal structure 
would've been nice, but the file's short -- grep it, awk it, 
format the heck out of it.  If there's any kind of consensus 
as to format, I'll try to build it into future revisions.

Corrections:

Donald E. Knuth will give you $2.00 for every new error you find
in _The Art of Computer Programming_.  Short as this file is, I 
don't think I can match him.  Nevertheless, corrections and 
additional info are sought:  I'll add or amend as necessary.  
Please mail them to:

	books@gpu.utcc.utoronto.ca

Copyright:

We don't need no stinking copyright.

Revisions since last change:

Corrections address changed to books@gpu.utcc.utoronto.ca, but
it's still meikle@gpu.utcc.utoronto.ca behind it.
Pergamon is now owned by Elsevier,
Jones & Bartlett is distributed by Copp Clark in Canada,
and Digital Press has been sold to Butterworths.
Other aesthetic & factual errors silently corrected.
