Define “Xlibris.”

Xlibris came from the Latin term “ex libris,” which means “from the library of.” We are a publishing services provider. With us, you are the publisher, and we act as a "back office" that handles the design and layout of your book. We fulfill your book orders while calculating and issuing royalties. We also provide marketing, editorial, and distribution support.

How old do I have to be to publish my book with you?

You can be of any age to publish with us! (But if you’re not yet an adult, you’ll have to ask a parent or legal guardian to co-sign some documents for you.)

How Publishing with Xlibris Australia Works

Why Our Writers Choose Xlibris

"If there's a book in you, its realisation is a turning point. One day you are "in the closet" (a secret writer). And then you have a manuscript, which becomes a book, which is in the hands of strangers who say, for better or for worse. "I've just read Tracy Lee's first novel."
