Affordable Publisher Cataloging-in-Publication
Solutions for Independent Authors & Publishers

View Samples of Our Book Cover & Interior Designs


Most self-publishers and many small, independent publishers find themselves unable to acquire Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication (CIP) data, due to LoC policy. This data appears on the book's copyright page (reverse side, or verso, of the title page) and may be used by librarians to determine how to catalog and shelve your book. If you cannot acquire LoC CIP data, you may include a Publisher's CIP (PCIP) block on the copyright page.
Although there are differences of opinion about how useful this data is to librarians and whether its presence will lead to more library sales, a CIP block is an inexpensive addition that may help sell books to libraries and may make your self- or micro-publishing business appear more established, professional, and knowledgeable.
Probably the biggest advantage to having PCIP data for your book is that it may get your book cataloged faster and out on the shelves of libraries faster than books for which the librarians have to create the cataloging data.
Our staff includes a professional librarian who develops the Publisher's CIP data block for all of our books. We can't guarantee that it will benefit your book, but it certainly won't hurt!
You can purchase CIP data for your book from us and pay by credit card or PayPal by using the simple order form below.

Why CIP Data Is Important
5 Ways to Screw Up Your CIP Data

NOTE
You must have an ISBN, and should have a Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN), before we can develop your CIP data. You can get your LCCN via the Preassigned Control Number (PCN) program and purchase ISBNs at ISBN.org


Standard Price: $5900
We complete PCIP orders in the order we receive them with turnaround time varying depending on our current workload and the complexity of the cataloging task. Once we receive your order and payment, we will send you a confirming email with a firm completion date.
