A cooperative for small presses
Independent publishing, with a cooperative behind you.
The Publishing Consortium, LLC is a cooperative of independent publishing companies. Member presses share the high startup costs of publishing and use their combined numbers to get better deals.
Two ways we help independent publishers
ISBN Services
Each format of a book you publish, such as a paperback, a hardcover, or an ebook, typically needs its own ISBN. Buying them one at a time is expensive, and buying together brings the cost down.
Pricing available on request
Membership: $25 per year
Our members are independent publishing companies that work together to share the costs of publishing. Membership costs $25 per year for each imprint.
$25 per year, per imprint
