If selected as an IAP Select title, your book could reach readers across the U.S. and Canada—and you’ll have the chance to opt into our Commercial Collections, which include royalty opportunities. More information on the Indie Author project here. Please note: Authors submitting to the Indie Author Project give the Indie Author Project a non-exclusive license to make their ebook available to public library patrons via subscribing institutions in the public library market. Participation in the Indie Author Project does not restrict authors and their publishing service providers/future publishers in any manner from promoting and selling their ebooks to any market. Authors also reserve all intellectual and proprietary rights in the work— the Indie Author Project does not infringe upon that.
