(1)  follow up within a reasonable time all book orders for which he ensures exclusive distribution, whatever the origin of the books, subject to the Act and the Regulation respecting the acquisition of books by certain persons from accredited bookstores (chapter D-8.1, r. 1);

(2)  notify customers as soon as possible of any delay in filling the order or of the impossibility of filling it completely or partially;

(3)  provide for storage and provide information on the stocks and titles he distributes;

(4)  guarantee efficient and rapid means of distribution;

(5)  not take part in any collusion, exercise any undue influence or be involved in trading of favours, and avoid any conflict of interest in his relations with an institution or agency mentioned in the Act, or with its directors, mandataries or representatives; for an accredited distributor to also be a bookstore owner does not constitute a conflict of interest.
