Video
A short walkthrough from our team
Recorded on a working visit. It plays muted, only when you press play, and never autoplays with sound.
Description & transcript
The clip has no narration. It moves along a narrow aisle between full-height shelves of second-hand and reference books, past stacks resting on the floor, towards two arched windows looking onto a street. It is included to show the kind of working reading environment our editorial team uses, not to represent a corporate office interior.
Map & directions
Map
We will not place a pin on a location we have not verified. The map component below activates the moment a verified address is published, and it then updates the contact page, about page, footer and structured data at the same time.
This is a regional view of Chicago, Illinois, United States. It is not a street-level pin: no specific building is marked until a verified address is published.
Contact
Verified contact channels
These are the only channels our team uses for new enquiries. Anything else claiming to represent us should be reported.
Visiting us
How an appointment works
A short, honest process — no drop-in desk, and no address shared before it is confirmed.
1. Write to us first
Send an email or use the contact form with the project and the dates that suit you. We confirm who from the team should attend.
2. We confirm in writing
You receive a written confirmation with the time, the attendees and the exact meeting location or the video call link.
3. Verify before you travel
If anything about a meeting request looks unusual, check it against the channels on this page before travelling or sending documents.
Location FAQ
Questions we are asked about our location
Where is Meridian Press International | Global Publishing based?
We are a United States company. Our published region is shown on this page, and our team works with authors, translators, editors and publishers internationally by scheduled video call, email and WhatsApp.
Can I visit the office?
Visits are by appointment only. Write to our contact address first so a member of the team can confirm a time, and so we can confirm exactly where to meet.
Why is a full street address not published here yet?
We publish an address only once it has been verified for public use. Until then this page shows our region and our verified contact channels rather than an approximate location, because an inaccurate address in search results causes real problems for visitors.
How do I confirm that someone contacting me really works here?
Use the official channels on this page and our Security & Copyright page. We will never ask for passwords, verification codes or confidential payment details through an unverified person or an unofficial account.
Do you work with authors outside the United States?
Yes. Most projects run remotely across time zones, and our editorial, translation, rights and audio work is international by design.
