The Emergency Response Unit is a co-operatively edited chapbook press based in Toronto, Ontario.
Our goal is to publish quality, affordable chapbooks - and more recently, broadsides - that fill the space between one-off poems published in literary journals and full-length books. We’re attracted to the idea of poems not necessarily as a sequence, but as a bundle, and believe the chapbook is ideal for this type of presentation. Also, we want to make pretty things.
Right now we're featuring a one-off poetry broadside to benefit Second Harvest Japan. You can visit the ghosts of books past on our site at theemergencyresponseunit.wordpress.com. If you see something you like, send us an email at emergencyresponseunit [at] gmail.com.
