No. Unlike with vanity publishers, you don’t have to purchase a minimum number of books for a print run. And while vanity publishers provide a one-time service, Xlibris is here for you throughout your self-publishing journey.
Is self-publishing the same as vanity publishing?

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.)
What do you choose when you choose self-publishing?
When poets like you choose to self-publish, they’re choosing to 1.) Keep the rights to their poetry; 2.) Keep complete control over their book; and 3.) Keep the bulk of the royalties. And sometimes choosing to publish your poetry yourself means going it alone. That can be pretty overwhelming.
But imagine having a team of experts guiding you through the whole process. Assisting you with the most challenging parts of publishing your book of poetry. Having your back every step of the way.
The Xlibris process is a collaborative effort, starting with your consultation. Once you’ve picked the publishing package that’s right for you, we’ll guide you through submissions. From there, our production team fulfills your vision. When you’re satisfied with your book, we’ll make it available to the world, and you’ll receive royalties on every copy you sell.

‘I cannot speak highly enough of the care, concern, expertise, and helpful attitudes of everyone I have dealt with at Xlibris Publishing. . . They helped me release my first book inside of three months, while my second book is almost completed. I feel blessed and lucky to have chosen Xlibris as my first publisher.’
—Wallace Collins, In a Quiet Voice
