At the beginning of this year I decided not to post on Sundays - well I'm breaking that rule for breaking news: Goose Lane Editions, Canada's oldest independent book publishing company is launching their new website this week. The launch will include lots of great deals on books. I'm happy to be able to support this amazing company and hope you will take the time to drop by their site and support them as well. Here's the official press release:
Goose Lane Editions launches new website
[Fredericton, NB] In 1994, still in the birthing years of the Internet, Goose Lane Editions, Canada’s oldest independent book publisher, made history by becoming one of the first publishing houses in the world to launch their own website. After 18 years, the site has gone through numerous transformations, changing to suit our evolving culture as technology improved and users became more computer-savvy. Now, we are proud to announce the newest iteration of www.gooselane.com, with new features, new content, and a new promotion to kick off the launch.In addition to a complete visual redesign, we have added new website elements such as twitter feeds and ongoing blog posts by our many employees. Sample chapters are available for many books, and an ongoing stream of events and notices is added to the main page every day.To celebrate our launch, we’d like to extend a special offer.
