Edelweiss Weekly Update – Monday, July 20, 2009

Remember: we offer free Webex-based demo’s twice per week for Retailers and other Catalog Readers.  “Reply” to me if you want more info on how to sign up.  Publisher reps: we can also work with you to schedule training.  Just let us know.

TIP OF THE WEEK

You can now filter titles on your order status, so if you’ve ordered your frontlist through Edelweiss you can check for top “buzz” titles (from Twitter and blogs) that you have not ordered from within the Internet Buzz area - look for the bumble bee.  Also, you can filter by genre, format, and a number of other elements.

FEATURES

No notable changes to the system over the past week.  We continue to work on a number of new features and, as always we welcome your suggestions and feedback!

CATALOGS (PUBLISHED)

• Penguin - There are a number of new Winter 2010 catalogs available from Penguin, including Berkley, Penguin Books, Plume, Viking, and Dutton/Gotham among others.  Some title data may still be added to these as they’re prepped for the selling season, but feel free to check them out.

CATALOGS (IN PROCESS)

The following catalogs are loaded into the system and are being fine-tuned before being made available for your viewing.  They should be available either as rep mailings or in the Available Catalogs section shortly.

• HarperCollins Winter 2010
