Xlibris Launches New Full Color Picture Book Service
Publishing Services Provider Pioneers Another Innovation in Publishing
Xlibris, one of the world's premier publishing services providers of print-on-demand books for self-published authors, unveiled today a new full color service. The new Xlibris Picture Book service offers authors, artists, entrepreneurs and others an exciting opportunity: state-of-the-art digital color publication at an affordable price.``This is a major step for publishing,'' said Xlibris CEO John Feldcamp, ``the ability to publish full color books on-demand changes the landscape of publishing and makes the market accessible to a whole new group of authors.'' Xlibris is the first print-on-demand publisher to offer a comprehensive service of this kind, fulfilling the needs of authors and artists who need to publish beyond black and white.
Xlibris' picture books are available in a wide range of formats, allowing authors to customize the exact book they envision. From children's picture books to illustrated cookbooks, the full color option allows authors to express themselves in ways never before possible with print-on-demand publishing. Like all of Xlibris' books, the authors retain all rights to their work, earn royalties on every sale and are free to offer their work to publishing houses and agents without restriction. Their books remain in print with Xlibris forever.
The new technology was developed by Xlibris, in conjunction with Berryville Graphics, one of the largest and most prestigious book manufacturers in the United States. The publishing process is simple and takes only a matter of months. After publication, the books are available to readers, resellers and distributors worldwide -- in quantities as low as one copy.
Xlibris is a publishing services company based in Philadelphia, serving authors as one of the original pioneers in the field of print-on-demand since 1997. The company has printed more than 7,000 titles and sold over a quarter- million books last year.
