Mailing Lists: Unlimited Use!


The Denali Press was founded in 1986 to publish reference, scholarly and trade books. In 1988 we started to develop our own mailing lists. Many of these lists are unique and available from no other source, for example, lists generated from the Refugee and Immigrant Resource Directory (List C) and Hispanic Resource Directory (List A).

Now the unusual part. These lists are for sale with full rights to reproduce (though not to resell.) The labels are provided on pressure sensitive sheets (30 labels) in zip code order. All the labels are laser-outputthey can be repro duced quickly and inexpensively. The price includes first class delivery within North America and unlimited use of the pressure sensitive sheets. For an extra $15 (per list) we will incorporate your slug line. There are no additional charges. The lists are also available as computer files . Contact us for specific information on 3 1/2 inch MAC / PC floppy disks.

We use these lists on a regular basis to market our books and offer cooperative mailings. The coop mail fee is equal to the price of the labels plus a 25% charge. See below for details on coop mailings.

If you would like additional information about these lists, lists in preparation, or coop mailings please contact us Two prices are given below for each list: the first price is for labels; the second price is for floppy disk. Please note there is a minimum order of $50orders shipped prepaid only.

Cooperative Mailings

The mailing lists described on the verso (which are for sale as either labels or floppy disks, with rights to reproduce) are used several times each year to market our books. We welcome the participation of other publishers in these mailings. Please note that we add & drop lists so it's best to give us a call to verify current information about the list.

Mailings are limited to a maximum of four flyers (including our own pieces.) Each flyer must fit inside a # 10 enve lope. The fee for each piece is the same as the price to buy the labels plus a 25% charge. Basically, you send us the folded flyerwe take care of labeling, stuffing, sealing, sorting, bagging, etc. Payment must accompany space reservation.

Our fee works out to $125-$200/M. The cost to do it yourself would be approximately $400/M. Unlike other publish ers offering coop mailings, we include no more than four pieces. Half of our mailings include only two or three flyers. Since the mailings are conducted to market our books, they take place regardless of the number of participating

publishers. We need no minimum numberthe mailings take place when they are scheduled. Another point to keep in mind is that due to the small number of enclosures our mailings are treated seriously by recipientsmailings with many pieces are often treated as junk mail.

Since 1988 we have conducted our major mailings in September and March, as well as smaller mailings throughout the rest of the year. The participants have included small independent publishers, a self-publisher, university press and literary association drawn from seventeen states throughout the United States. Because we limit participation to between one and three publishers per each list, the available spaces often fill quickly. If interested, please contact us as soon as possible to verify that a particular list will be used and space is available.

If we believe your product is not best served by joining our coop mailing, we'll tell you so. We are strong supporters of independent publishing (our publisher is a member of the COSMEP Board and is a former Dean of Libraries at one of the largest universities in the U.S.) Obviously, we make no guarantees about responses to these mailings. The Denali Press is a full-time publishing house99% of our revenue comes from selling books we publish.

The Denali Press is a member of the following organizations: COSMEP (International Association of Independent Publishers); Publishers Marketing Association; Society for Scholarly Publishing; Alaska Association of Small Presses; American Library Association; and the Small Press Center in New York. We are listed in various directories, including Literary Market Place.

The Denali Press is also the donor of the American Library Association's The Denali Press Award, which is presented annually to recognize achievement in creating reference works, outstanding in quality and significance, that provide information specifically about ethnic and minority groups.
