Re: [GWL]: Can we develop a database of Garden Magazines?

A database of all gardening mgazines, not just regional ones, would 
be a great idea and a very useful resource. It would be valuable to 
have information on Canadian, British, Australian, New Zealand and 
other magazines, as well as national and regional American ones. This 
would help not only as a list of possible markets, but also as 
resources for research on gardening in particular regions and 
countries - especially useful for authors of books to be published in 
a number orf different countries.

I would suggest that the following information would be useful.

Title
Address
Phone
Fax
Email
Website
Cover price
Circulation
Geographical area of coverage
Editor
Art/Picture Editor

This data for the various countries could then be combined into one 
file for posting to this list or for putting up on any future GWL 
website, and/or the GWAA website and/or the GWG website.

I will undertake to compile information on British magazines. We just 
need some people to take responsibility for other countries. The US 
could perhaps be split into national, east and west to spread the 
load.

Any thoughts?
