Book Afliliate Programs

by David Kelley on September 23, 2009

Interact has a relationship with a number of publishers as Book Affiliate Programs including WROX, Orielly and Manning. Part of this program includes being able to get new copies of books with the catch that you do a review for us that we can publish. We also encourage you to help with our reccommended reading list program at: http://www.seattled2ig.org/?tag=readinglist and also the forum on facebook http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=118478560904&topic=12487

O’reilly Media http://ug.oreilly.com/

Please let us know what books and when reviews are complete so we can publish then and send notes on to oreilly.

WROX (Programmer to Programmer) http://www.wrox.com/

for Book Reviews if there is a book that you want to review for our user group, then send an email to ptrequest@wiley.com. Identify the title and ISBN of the book, and where to ship the book to. After the review is posted, send us an e-mail to let us and wrox know about it.

Buy and SAVE!
In appreciation of our relationship with registered Wrox user groups, we’d like to offer you special discounts. Please contact Jeff Parker at jparker@wiley.com and mention promo code WRXU2, to explore our user group discount program.

Manning Publishing http://www.manning.com/

1. General discount. All Manning User Groups are entitled to a 36% discount on any purchase from www.manning.com. Please contact Interact for the code for this program for ordering books.
2. Review copies. For book reviews, manning would love to send us review copies of ebooks or print books (print review copies are available if your shipping address is within the United States).
 
REVIEW GUIDELINES
1. This is primarily a publicity review of your impressions. The aim is to raise awareness of the book in the community (as opposed to a technical/developmental review, though those notes are welcome in the author forums).
2. Manning welcomes reviews in a variety of places: blogs, developer sites, even Amazon.
3. We like to see a review two to six weeks from the time the book is received.
4. Because the bulk of our marketing is done in English, we ask that any reviews in other languages be translated for our publicity efforts.
5. Once a review is posted, you can send the link to stho@manning.com, along with your name and affiliation (position, institution), as we often post snippets and links of reviews on the Manning site.
