Begun informally in 1983 by a small group of Quaker publishers and booksellers,
Quakers Uniting in Publications
is now an international network of over 50 Friends organizations and
individuals concerned with the ministry of the written word.
Members work together to achieve common goals:
- accessible centers for the distribution of Quaker publications
- a computerized on-line data base of all Quaker publications currently available
- cooperative publishing to provide needed, good publications at lower prices. For example,
George Fox's Book of Miracles , and the Forthcoming (August 2005) Whispers of Faith by Young Friends.
