b : morgue 2
3
a : a series of related books issued by a publisher
b : a collection of publications on the same subject

Seems 1a knocks out your retail examples and 3a supports the PR from Gollancz/Orion...
And 1a knocks out Gollancz as well, unless you think aren't going to charge for their books. What is your point?
