University of Ottawa Press signed agreement
Firsty Group is delighted to announce the signing of a new website development agreement with the University of Ottawa Press, Canada’s oldest French language university press and the only bilingual university press in North America.
The new site is scheduled for launch over the summer, and will enable UOP to directly sell its growing list of academic print and eBook titles, with journals added further down the line.
Lisa Marie Smith, Project Manager at UOP said: “We are happy to have just started working with Firsty Group on our new D2C website. The whole team has been a delight to work with so far. From initial proposal stages to project kick-off, they have shown to really understand our needs as a publisher from both a technical and design perspective. I am very impressed with the organization of the project so far and the steps Firsty takes to ensure they will deliver the website we are looking for.”
Darin Brockman added: ‘We’re really pleased to bring a publisher with the weight and tradition of UOP on board, and we’re really looking forward to working with the team in Ottawa in the months ahead. It’s exciting to add another bilingual publishing client to the Firsty portfolio, and as long as they don’t expect any French input from me, then we’re all set!’
