Your book is complete and it’s time to share it with the world. As a Lulu author, your print and eBooks can be published and offered for sale in the Lulu Marketplace at no cost to you. Authors with bigger ambitions can take advantage of the following distribution options:

 

extendedREACH - Free.


  • Your print book will be made available for sale on Amazon.com (US, UK, France, Germany, Spain, and Italy) as a regular listing eligible for Amazon's discounts and shipping rates.
  • Your title and ISBN will also be listed in major bibliographic databases.

To add ExtendedReach distribution to your title, go to My Lulu > My Projects and add distribution to eligible books (What Products are Eligible for Retail Distribution?).

Please Note: This option is available for print books assigned a Free Lulu ISBN. If you bring your own ISBN you are not eligible for ExtendedREACH Distribution, but you can take advantage of our GlobalREACH plan.

 

globalREACH - $75

This distribution option is available to authors using a free Lulu ISBN and to authors who bring their own ISBN or purchase an ISBN from Lulu.

  • Your print book will be made available for sale at online retailers worldwide such as Amazon.com (US, UK, France, Germany, Spain, and Italy) and Barnes & Noble.
  • Brick and mortar bookstores will be able to order and stock your title through Ingram if they so desire.
  • Your title will be listed in major bibliographic databases such as Nielsen and Bowker.

To add GlobalReach distribution to your title, go to My Lulu > My Projects, click the Manage link next to the distribution eligible title for which you wish to purchase distribution. Add the distribution package to your cart and check out. (What Products are Eligible for Retail Distribution?).
