Turnaround Publisher Services to Join PubEasy

NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ--(Marketwire - April 3, 2008) - PubEasy®, the global enquiry and ordering service for the book industry, today announced that Turnaround Publisher Services will join the growing e-community of booksellers and their suppliers in the UK and International market.

"We are extremely pleased to welcome Turnaround Publisher Services as a PubEasy Affiliate," said Liz McNaughton, European sales manager of PubEasy. "The addition of Turnaround's books will expand our title range to booksellers and will enhance the service offered by Turnaround to its customers. With the 1st May e4books eDay deadline approaching, this is great timing. It will enable booksellers to conduct business with Turnaround 24x7, 365 days a year."

Sue Gregg, financial director at Turnaround, said, "I'm delighted that Turnaround is joining PubEasy because our customers have been asking us about it for some time. We receive a significant number of price and availability enquiries, and becoming a PubEasy affiliate means that we can free up time for more value-added activities, and so enhance the service we provide. It is particularly valuable for our overseas customers since it makes it easy for them to conduct business outside of our UK service centre hours."

When Turnaround goes live in Summer 2008, titles serviced via their UK distribution facilities will be available to registered booksellers with a PubEasy account for ordering and enquiry needs. Booksellers who wish to receive free access to PubEasy can go to www.pubeasy.com and register online. Booksellers will be able to check price and availability and place orders with Turnaround using PubEasy.
