Xlibris Corporation
Xlibris Philippines Inc. is a new kind of publishing company. Self-publishing has a rich history and is a growing reality in book publishing - made all the more accessible by producing books on a "print-on-demand" basis. Xlibris provides book design and production services to authors and makes finished books available at its online bookstores as well as leading booksellers like Barnesandnobleinc.com and Amazon.com. When readers place orders for the book, we print the quantity required, ship and pay royalties to the author. Among our service offerings are hardback, trade paperback, four-color picture books and electronic formats.
In strategic partnership with Random House, Inc., Xlibris will continuously offer new publishing services that open the marketplace of published books to everyone, and will strengthen and enrich the landscape of books and writings as a whole. If you are committed to helping writers achieve their goals, you should be on our team.
We are located in the heart of the historic district of Philadelphia, have a casual but driven and professional culture and are poised for continued growth in 2004 and beyond.
Xlibris – the name is a derivation of the Latin term “ex libris” which means “from the library of”. This term was traditionally used on the bookplates with a name to distinguish the owner of the book. The company is an on-demand publishing services provider that enables authors to become their own publishers. When authors publish with Xlibris, they are essentially self-publishing in the most efficient way possible. Founded in 1997 by its CEO, John Feldcamp, Xlibris is the world’s premier publishing services provider. It has published over 10,000 titles and sold over 1 million books.
The company promotes teamwork, passion and drive for high performance. It has a vision of building a team which believes in their own abilities to change for the better.
Xlibrians are articulate, caring, confident, smart and energetic. They are extremely loyal to their teams and take good care of their customers. They exude maturity and integrity. Xlibrians are top performers who respect each other’s craft.
Xlibris is a place created by writers, for the writers and about writers. We focus on the needs of creative people, and on how technology and new approaches can be applied to make the lives of authors more productive and satisfying.
The publishing industry, as it exists today, is going through a revolution. New technologies and the advent of the internet are making advances in the realm of book publishing that were unthinkable even ten years ago.
Xlibris exists to help authors capitalize on the changes being wrought within publishing. IT enables them to take part in the creation of a new publishing landscape that is not driven by the mass market, but one where any reader can find any book that’s right for them, purchase that book, and have it produced anytime they want.
