NEWS
- New Distribution Agreement -
William Andrew has signed an exclusive international distribution agreement with Elsevier. Beginning December 1, 2007, Elsevier will manage the sales, marketing, and distribution of William Andrew handbooks, references, and databases in all territories outside of North America. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Elsevier outside of North America. And we will now have the ability to work more closely with our North American distribution network to not only increase exposure for William Andrew titles, but increase sales as well. One very positive note is that William Andrew now has a complete database of books, which will be available soon for all of our partners (see the next issue of William Andrew News for more information).

DID YOU KNOW?
The Engineering Documentation Control Handbook, 2nd Edition by Frank Watts has eclipsed the 10,000 unit mark! This is one of a select few books in the William Andrew catalog that has very broad appeal for all engineers. It is the number one selling book in its subject on both Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and we include it in every catalog and brochure we send out. Every engineer has to document their work, and this book is the best single reference for that process.
