Weigl Educational Publishers Limited is a publishing house in Canada, one of the country's largest.[1]
Linda A. Weigl founded the company in 1979 as a textbook publisher. First based in Saskatchewan, the company moved to Alberta in 1984, and now has its headquarters in Calgary with a warehouse in Ontario.[1] In the 1980s, Weigl Educational Publishers Limited produced multimedia social studies kits for Alberta Education. The kits supported Alberta's new social studies program and were distributed to all Elementary and Secondary schools in the province.[2] Known as Kanata Kits, they included many different educational materials, including teacher guides, student booklets, audiovisual resources, picture sets, and manipulative items.[1]
At the same time, the company published Canada’s Political Heritage, a Canadian history textbook for grade 8 which was a major commercial success, selling more than 70,000 copies between 1985 and 1990.[1]
The company's main focus is now the K–12 school library market. With the production of non-fiction reference titles in English and French, Weigl Educational Publishers Limited established a solid national presence.[3] The company is also renowned for its titles about Indigenous Peoples, covering historical, cultural, and contemporary subjects about First Nations, Inuit, and Métis.[4] The catalogue of Weigl Educational Publishers Limited counts more than 1,940 titles, being the most comprehensive Canadian collection in the country.[5] For its preeminent role in the Canadian book industry, Weigl Educational Publishers Limited has been the recipient of Canadian grants, support, and funding, including from the Book Publishing Industry Development Program in 2006[6] and the Canada Book Fund in 2011.[7]
