Publishing
LACS-Editors work with authors at various stages in the publishing process and are the main contact for the author whilst their book is published with LACS.
Once a manuscript has been delivered, we will work closely with you as the author and the production department to ensure that copy-editing, design, typesetting, and proof-reading move ahead swiftly and that high standards are maintained.
The marketing manager will be in touch prior to publication, detailing the broad marketing plan for the work, with information about catalogues and mailings, conferences and review lists, and inviting comments and suggestions.
The Productionpeople are responsible for the physical appearance and manufacturing of the books. We use professional copy-editors and proof-readers and have specialist cover and text designers in-house.
Worldwide sales, marketing, and distribution
LACS uses its international structure to promote and sell its books to as wide a readership as possible. We have partnerships with distributors and resellers and expanding the network further whenever an opportunity is there.
