Book Distribution

Northern Quill Publishing provides selective distribution services for independently published and small-press books with a strong connection to the Northwest Territories and Canada’s North.

We help get books into readers’ hands through our online bookstore, retail relationships, wholesale orders, markets, festivals, and other sales opportunities.
