Outskirts Press has been helping authors self-publish high-quality, award-winning academic books for over 20 years, and we stand behind our book printing and design services with the best guarantee in the self-publishing industry.
We take the mystery (and the work) out of publishing and allow you to maintain control over every aspect of your book—from how it looks, to how much it costs.
ACADEMIC GENRE PUBLISHING PACKAGES
Academic books cover a vast array of topics and can be much more than just a textbook or workbook. Scholarly books are intended to disseminate academic discussion and research among professionals within a given discipline; or, they are intended to be used by students for education and research—or sometimes, both.
Outskirts Press offers publishing packages for black & white academic books or full-color academic book.
For authors looking to self-publish their academic book, Outskirts Press provides the services to allow you to reach your academic audience wherever they are and however they want to "read" your book by offering paperback/hardback editions, eBooks and audiobooks.
We offer the most popular academic book sizes (including popular textbook and workbook sizes), with glossy or matte covers in both paperback and hardback so you can find exactly the right format for your book.

Academic books with black & white interiors can be between 17 and 1,199 pages in length and books in vivid full color can be between 17 and 1,000 pages in length, so you can publish anything from cliff notes to a scientific textbook.

Douglas W. Smith reviews Outskirts Press
I really appreciated Larry's patience with me as a new author. There's A LOT I didn't know about publishing a book, and Larry was able to make the whole process straightforward. The publication happened in time for me to use the book for my classes and my students appreciate the reasonable price instead of what they may have had to pay had I gone with a different publisher. Thanks very much!
Dr. Stephen C. Simms reviews Outskirts Press
I knew that my essay writing manual would be labor-intensive from the beginning. Outskirts delivered a wonderful product after allowing the thorough set of editing needed to produce my high-quality, color coded essay workbook that students, teachers, principals, and schools would love! Kudos!
Nichole Ellis reviews Outskirts Press
I am usually quite a skeptical person by nature. When the time came for me to start investigating and researching who I wanted to publish with, I was careful to do my research. Even after I purchased my initial package with Outskirts, my skepticism continued. Outskirts was very patient with me. I received all of the services as promised and more. Finally the time came that I nervously hit the publish button. My heart was in my stomach. A few days after I was officially published, I began to find my book all over different search engines. I can find my book in Australia, Canada, the UK, Sweden, Japan, and more. I cannot describe the feeling of knowing that I have shared something important to me with the world, literally. I think the greatest asset Outskirts contributed was their patience in dealing with my skepticism and the professionalism of my production team as I went through the process. I was always well informed and knew what was happening every step of the way. Thank you Outskirts for helping me share my story with the world.
