Is there any cost/investment associated with publication? |
|
| | Being a partner and publishing a work with Library24x7 brings some responsibilities to an author. With Library24x7 publishing model, authors retain the rights to their work and, in exchange, they should make the following investment:
- Cover and back-cover design – We cannot emphasize enough how important is the appearance of the cover. Library24x7 makes available to authors, at no cost, a variety of professionally designed templates and instructions in how to make the cover. However, authors have the option to hire the professional designer of their choice for an exclusive design.
- Content (galley) design – Library24x7 offers to every author a free publishing manual with complete instructions and suggestions in how to set up their work. Again, authors who prefer to hire the professional designer of their choice are welcome to do so.
- Professional Editing/Proofreading – It is natural for an author to oversee a few grammatical errors, typos and other small mistakes in their work. In some cases, dialogs, sentence structure or simple wrong choices of word will arise. Library24x7 firmly considers that every manuscript should be read, critiqued, and edited by a professional other than the author. Authors are free to retain the professional service of their choice.
- Encryption – Library24x7 uses a sophisticated proprietary process to protect every one of its published works. The security protection is mandatory in our model and, is the only service that must be performed by the Library24x7’s technical department.
Authors will be charged a one-time low fee of $359.00 per work encrypted, due upon acceptance and signing of the Publishing Agreement.
