There are two types of authors who write family history books, and No Waste Publishing® is the ideal publisher for either type.
Some genealogy authors intend to distribute books only to the immediate family and maybe to a few libraries and the local genealogical society. This author may need a little help with the cover design, but not much else. A print run will typically be from 25 to 200, often with a hard cover binding to enhance the appearance and appeal of the genealogy book when distributing to family members.
Then there’s the genealogy author who writes a more scholarly tome with the intention of distributing and selling to a wider audience. This author is engaged in a wide variety of activities. For example, the author will invest more in a professional cover design, obtain ISBN numbers, and acquire Library of Congress control numbers. These authors will distribute books to a broader number of libraries, historical societies, and genealogical societies. Often, the book is judged to be of significance and is therefore catalogued within the library system. The self-publishing family author will also seek out book reviews from genealogical publications, and even mainstream newspapers. Family tree information is posted on the Internet through RootsWeb or other sites. Additionally, the author needs to create a web site that is optimized for the search engines so that prospective buyers can find the site, and then buy the book.

If all you require are professionally published family history books, we are your perfect source with our PrintOnly option.
