HOW TO PUBLISH YOUR BOOK IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND OR THE UNITED STATES
WHAT IS PRINT ON DEMAND AND HOW DOES IT WORK? Other publishers must guess how many copies of each title will sell. They print them, store them, and hope their guess is accurate. If the initial print run becomes exhausted the publisher makes a decision whether to commission another print run. In the majority of cases this would mean a book becomes out of print and no longer available. Since the average shelf life of a book is six months, an author would see years of hard work disappear. Print on demand solves this problem by making any book available on a small print run basis as orders are received from retail outlets. This enables print runs as little as a single copy and means the book is never out of print. Technology has enabled WRITERSWORLD to offer this service on acceptable economic terms.

LEGAL DEPOSIT LIBRARIESLegal deposit is the act of submitting published material to designated libraries and archives. Publishers and distributors in the United Kingdom and Ireland have an obligation to send material to six libraries that collectively maintain the national published archive of the British Isles: the British Library, the Oxford Bodleian Library, the Cambridge University Library, the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh, the Dublin Library of Trinity College and the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth. This is a four-century-old tradition. We must deposit your book within one month of publication. This will make your work available in the reading rooms, preserved for the benefit of future generations, a part of the national heritage. Your book will be recorded in the online catalogues of the libraries, all of which are accessible on the World Wide Web, essential research tools for generations to come.
