Everything you need to publish your eBook for all Platforms
If you are looking to publish an eBook edition of your book, our professional eBook conversion and formatting services include everything you’ll need.
Our eBooks come with vibrant full-color covers for premium digital library bookshelf display and include unlimited worldwide distribution on a wide array of eBook distribution platforms.
It’s more important than ever to be where your readers are. eBooks help you meet your readers where they are. More editions means, more readers, which means your message reaches a wider audience. eBooks of all genres (cookbooks, non-fiction, fiction, memoirs, poetry, children’s books, etc.) can be read on all modern eReaders and eReader apps.
Extensive Worldwide eBook Distribution
Outskirts Press offers eBook distribution through the world's largest eBook distributors like Ingram, OverDrive, ProQuest eBook Central, and to dozens of eBook retailers worldwide like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Google Play, and many others. We also offer distribution to libraries around the world through services like Libby, Follett, Hoopla, Bibliotheca and others.
What is an eBook?
An eBook is a digital (or electronic) version of a book which can be read on a computer, tablet, smart phone or handheld eReader device or app. An eBook has dynamic, reflowable content which allows the reader to tap, or click, to continue reading the properly formatted text no matter what size of screen they are using--and images automatically resize to fit the viewer's screen.
With eBooks, readers can take hundreds of books on the go with them without taking up any space or weighing them down!
Why do I need an eBook?
eBooks are the fastest way to self-publish a book. If you've already published a print edition of your book (paperback/hardback) eBooks allow you to expand your audience and reach readers wherever they are.
eBooks allow people with visual impairments to access books which otherwise would be unreadable for them (since they can increase the font size until they are able to read the text).
Where will my eBook be sold?
Online retail bookstores like Amazon (in the Kindle Store), Barnes & Noble (in the NOOK store), Apple (in Apple Books), in the Google Play store and hundreds of other eBook retailers will have the opportunity to sell your eBook.
eBook editions are essential for book sales, but many people still enjoy holding a physical paperback or hardback book in their hands—Outskirts Press can help with our Black & White Publishing Services or Full-Color Publishing Services. And make sure your book is part of the increasingly popular audiobook market which is growing at over 40% per year as readers avail themselves of audiobook technology to enhance their workday commute, make a road trip more entertaining or access content with vision impairment.

My representative Jamie was always extremely professional and helpful during the entire process of my book publication. She always responded very quickly to requests and was always helpful throughout the entire process. She is a great role model and a great asset to the Outskirts Press family. I will highly recommend Outskirts Press to my friends and associates and also look forward to doing more business in the future. I am extremely pleased with my book publication and consider this a major milestone in my life . Thank you all very much...
Lawrence N. Weston
author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

Bridget, as well as the entire Outskirts Press team working with me, are exceptional. They held my hand through the entire process in addition to providing me with welcomed support and encouragement. I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

I was very happy with my author rep's responses to me. She did a superb job of answering my questions and helping me through the editing process. She was always available when I needed her. I'm delighted with the outcome--my book looks good and it's selling! Thank you.

A great experience with Outskirts Press. I learned a lot in this process. I will do it all over again. Thank you so much.
Esther A. Ota
author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.
Nancy L. Regas
author of The Art of Being a School Counselor
What a blockbuster learning experience I had being a part of self publishing with Outskirts Press! I felt empowered to the next challenge by both Allison and Dana. Their professional guidance and clear instructions when I needed help was crucial to feeling I could tackle the next step. I look forward to the experience with the marketing team. Thanks, Outskirts Press.

Outskirts Press changed my life for the better. They turned my adoption memoir into a book that is not only beautiful to look at, it is pleasurable to read, easy to purchase online, and in less than a month already has had a profound impact on many people. A truly amazing company with a heart. Deepest gratitude!
