Publishing assistance

The SAIMM would like to assist its members and academia who may be considering publishing a book or have chapters that they would like to incorporate into a text book for use at a tertiary education level.

The facilities that we are offering include the following:

  • Providing bridging finance
  • Reviewing of the manuscript
  • Proofreading of the manuscript before typesetting
  • Assisting with marketing
  • Cost estimation for the project
