SDC book titles: SPECIAL OFFER

Earlier this year, the SDC repositioned a number of its book titles, including the all exclusive CD-ROM that contains all the most recent editions of the world-renowned SDC textbooks – from student textbooks to laboratory handbooks, the 6000+ pages of content of these books covers topics such as textile dyeing, fibre coloration and dyehouse management, and much more. When coming up with a new title for this CD, we decided to run a Wordle of all our book titles - and this is the 'word cloud' that we came up with: -

This is a great visual illustration of the topics that are covered within the SDC books portfolio. And so, a new name for the SDC Textile Dyeing Dossier was borne. The dossier contains electronic versions of the 20 textile dyeing books published by the SDC since 1992 and, for the next month (until 10 Oct 2010), we are running an exclusive special offer in relation to this.

SPECIAL OFFER: Receive a choice of 4x selected SDC print titles free of charge with every order of the SDC Textile Dyeing Dossier. Orders must be placed before 10 Oct 2010. Free titles can be selected from:

• Batchwise Dyeing of Woven Cellulosic Fabrics • Blends Dyeing • Cellulosics Dyeing • Colour for Textiles – A User’s Handbook • Colour in Dyehouse Effluent • Engineering in Textile Coloration • Giles’s Laboratory Course in Dyeing • Instrumental Colour Formulation • Theory of Coloration of Textiles • Wool Dyeing •

We are pleased to say the new issue of the SDC members' magazine The Colourist. This issue has a 'textile machinery' theme and features information about the UK manufacturer of quality knitwear, John Smedley Ltd. It is a Smedley design that is featured on the front cover and if you want to see who else is wearing 'a Smedley' these days, check out their company blog, here.

Also in this issue is more information on the SDC one-day wool conference Textiles-UK (taking place in London next month), along with a feature on our competition finalists!
