Linus Publications

In addition to fiction and nonfiction trade books, Linus Publications focuses on producing textbooks, lab manuals, and other material for the educational community. Their list of over 300 titles is characterized by consistently good design—both inside and out—and close attention to editorial detail. As a small house without some of the traditional baggage of older publishers, they rely on electronic technology to achieve short-run printings, premium educational materials, and competitive pricing. The Linus Publications staff works very closely with authors, through all phases of the book, including reviewing, editing, design, and copyright clearance of third-party material.

As a resource for instructors using custom-written or compiled classroom teaching materials, Linus Publications' website features a comprehensive authors' guide, with clear, step-by-step procedures for developing their project, including: writing, compiling, and illustrating textbooks, lab manuals, and optional multi-media products.

In order to create the greatest visibility, Linus Publications markets their products to academics, students, and all potentially interested parties. In addition to its online store, the firm provides direct mail and e-mail promotions, a booth at book convention exhibits, and other forms of direct outreach to potential clients. Their website normally features a synopsis of a publication, often with a detailed description of the author's background.

Linus publishes in every field from physics to philosophy, computers to consumer science, English to engineering. Nearly 35 to date. Their online store makes it safe and it easy order their publications.
