Benefits

As well as reduced rates for joint UK-TUG/TUG membership, members also have access to the UK-TUG Book Scheme, offering up to 25 % of the cover price of relevant titles. The publishers currently offering discounts though our
scheme are:
  • Pearson (The umbrella company incorporating Addison-Wesley)
  • O’Reilly

The arrangements with Pearson includes the Guide to LaTeX and LaTeX Companion as well as Donald Knuth’s publications, back into availability at a price which undercuts those offered by Web-based booksellers. The Pearson Group also embraces additional publishing houses including Adobe, PeachPit,
Prentice–Hall, Que & Sams which may also come within the discount scheme, though this has yet to be tested. If you wish to take advantage of this scheme, please email the committee.

  1. I want to renew my membership, and I’ve filled out the form, but it’s been sitting on my desk for a couple of weeks because I can’t find my cheque book. Cheques are being phased out nowadays, and I can’t remember the last time I used one. My current bank (in Vienna, where I live) doesn’t even issue cheque books any more. Can I pay my renewal fee by PayPal please!

    Best,
    Dominik

  2. Dear ukTUG,

    I think it might be useful to include a list of /all/ the membership benefits, eg including the annual TeX Collection DVD, etc.

    regards,
