It is important that we define and classify the primary 3 mediums in which we work. 

 

**Print Edition:

A system or process whereby a set number of copies of a book or text are printed either via offset printing, lithography, or digital technology and shipped directly to the publisher and/or author for direct sales and/or inventory.

 

***Ebook:

A digital or electronic version of a printed book that can be read on a computer or handheld device designed specifically for this purpose.

It should be noted, as we transition towards the environmentally-friendly Sustainable Publishing we will be phasing out our option of ebooks by March of 2024. Some exceptions will apply.

​

****Print-on-demand, or POD:

A system or process whereby individual copies or small numbers of a book or text are printed to order and shipped directly to the end-user or customer, the copies bypassing both the publisher and/or the author. Often this service is available worldwide.
