No. Unlike with vanity publishers, you don’t have to purchase a minimum number of books for a print run. And while vanity publishers provide a one-time service, Xlibris is here for you throughout your self-publishing journey.

Define “Xlibris.”
Xlibris came from the Latin term “ex libris,” which means “from the library of.” We are a publishing services provider. With us, you are the publisher, and we act as a "back office" that handles the design and layout of your book. We fulfill your book orders while calculating and issuing royalties. We also provide marketing, editorial, and distribution support.
How old do I have to be to publish my book with you?
You can be of any age to publish with us! (But if you’re not yet an adult, you’ll have to ask a parent or legal guardian to co-sign some documents for you.)
It's easy to self-publish with Xlibris.
No publishing experience? Don't know where to start? It's okay, we got you.
We have editors who will make your beautiful words shine brighter. Our designers will create a stunning book cover of your poetry book. And to bring you to your readers, we have expert book marketers, too.
What You Get when You Choose Supported Xlibris Self-Publishing
Supported publishing is the faster and easier way to publish your book. No need for a literary agent. No need to wait years to finally hold your book in your hands. No need to wonder if your readers will even see your work.
The Xlibris process is a collaborative effort, starting with your consultation. Once you’ve picked the publishing package that’s right for you, we’ll guide you through submissions. From there, our production team fulfills your vision. When you’re satisfied with your book, we’ll make it available to the world, and you’ll receive royalties on every copy you sell.

Why the Xlibris Self-Publishing Path is Better
What Our Self-Published Authors Say
"If there's a book in you, its realisation is a turning point. One day you are "in the closet" (a secret writer). And then you have a manuscript, which becomes a book, which is in the hands of strangers who say, for better or for worse. "I've just read Tracy Lee's first novel."
Tracy Lee, educator, mother, and author of What Remains
