Emerald launches new web-based Bookstore

Over 2,000 books now available to browse and buy online

[ClickPress, Wed Jun 25 2008] Emerald Group Publishing Limited is delighted to announce the launch of Emerald Bookstore. This new facility allows visitors to browse through over 2,000 books by subject area and to order securely online at http://books.emeraldinsight.com

Authors are enthusiastic about the news, seeing this development as a confirmation of Emerald’s commitment to the ongoing support of their communities.

Following its recent move into book publishing, Emerald has welcomed new areas of expertise, such as language and linguistics, sociology, psychology, and more, to add to its core portfolio of management titles.

Cathy Mostyn, Director of Books and Book Series at Emerald, comments: “Bookstore has provided the solution we need to develop and promote our book portfolio in all subject areas. Bookstore is a step further in book publishing, extending the scope of our publishing avenues and complementing our existing journal portfolio and online products and services”.

For students and researchers, Bookstore will fast-track access to indispensable research, including recent high-profile titles such as “Qualitative Research in the Study of Leadership” by Karen Klenke, a new edition of “An Introduction to the Physiology of Hearing” by James Pickles, and “International Handbook of Distance Education” by Evans, Haughey and Murphy.

Emerald has enjoyed strong growth in recent years as it continues to publish rigorous and relevant research and actively expands its portfolio of products and services tailored for the needs of both academic institutions and corporate organizations across the world.
