Book Publish 2
Publishing a book is a landmark achievement, turning your manuscript into a tangible, citable, and discoverable work that can influence your field, reach readers, and enrich your academic profile. Our Book Publish service supports you through every step of that journey.
What “Book Publish” Covers
Our Book Publish service is full-service and modular. You may choose individual components or the complete package. Key elements include
- Manuscript Assessment & Editorial Planning
We evaluate your draft, advise on structure, chapters, scope, and market positioning (monograph, edited volume, textbook).
- Peer Review / Expert Review Coordination
We connect your manuscript to external subject experts for constructive, confidential feedback and help you manage revisions.
- Copyediting & Proofreading
Language polishing, consistency checks, citations, style alignment, and final proof correction to ensure a high editorial standard.
- Typesetting, Design & Layout
We produce print-quality and digital layouts, in hardcopy format, eBook, or both, handling typography, chapter headers, front/back matter, cover design, tables, figures, pagination, and quality control.
- ISBN / DOI / Metadata Registration
We assist in obtaining ISBNs, registering DOIs for chapters or the entire book, and preparing catalog metadata (subject classification, keywords, abstracts) for indexing and library inclusion.
- Distribution & Retail & Library Listing
We place your book in online retailers (Amazon, Google Books, etc.), library catalog systems, academic distributors, and print-on-demand services. We also help with catalog listings and promotional placements.
- Ebook Conversion & Formats
Convert your book into digital formats (ePub, Mobi, PDF) compatible with e-readers, institutional platforms, and scholarly repositories.
- Marketing & Launch Support
We provide a marketing plan, promotional materials (flyers, social media graphics, press releases), author outreach, and launch campaigns.
- Rights Management & Licensing
Guidance on how to license chapters, translations, reprints, and use Creative Commons or other licensing models.
- Print & On-Demand Services
Manage print runs, print-on-demand scheduling, quality checks, shipping, and inventory management.
Withdrawal (pre-publication):
- Removal of a submitted manuscript from editorial consideration before publication.
Post-publication actions:
- If an article has already been published, the appropriate remedy is typically a correction, expression of concern, or retraction, depending on the issue.
General Principal
- A withdrawal request is not automatic. It is reviewed and confirmed in writing by the editorial office.
- Until written confirmation is issued, the manuscript remains under consideration and must not be submitted elsewhere.
- Withdrawal requests may be paused or declined if there is an active integrity or ethics review.
Who can request withdrawal
- The corresponding author must submit the request.
- The corresponding author must confirm that all co-authors have been informed and agree to the withdrawal.
- If authorship is disputed, the journal may require written confirmation from all authors before processing the request.
