Founded in 1992, Purich Publishing Ltd. is a Saskatoon, Saskatchewan based publisher specializing in books on Aboriginal, legal and western Canadian issues. It has focussed on these areas because they reflect the interests of founding publisher, Donald Purich. Prior to starting Purich Publishing, publisher Don served for eleven years as Director of the University of Saskatchewan Native Law Centre. He has also practiced law, has and continues to teach law, and has written extensively on Aboriginal, legal and agricultural issues.
To date we have published sixteen titles, with # 17 due to be released shortly, and our goal is to publish between 3 - 4 titles per year. We believe in working closely with our authors in developing new titles and our goal is to produce the best books possible (both in accuracy and in appearance). The books we produce are aimed primarily at the reference and academic market, although we do venture into the trade area occasionally. A main focus of our marketing strategy is direct mail, sending notices of our books to persons we believe will find them of interest or value.
