What People Say

“We don’t talk about Bookmobile much at Graywolf Press, we don’t need to, in the way that we don’t talk about the clocks keeping time. We have relied on Bookmobile for high quality, attentive, and efficient design and production services for over twenty years. In addition, they manage our eBook conversions and produce all of our galleys, and we regularly turn to them for short-run reprints of 750 copies or fewer.”

Bookmobile understands the art of bookmaking, in addition to having master-level technical expertise; they honor what our books mean to us as a publisher and to our authors. I am so grateful to partner with Bookmobile, and the larger publishing community is a better place with them in it.”

Publisher, The Gryphon Press

“With just a hint of an idea for an anniversary publication, a book project was handed off to our alumni team to deliver printed copies in an incredibly short window. Armed with only a scant outline, the team at Bookmobile understood our vision, delivering brilliant design templates and typesetting. A true partner, Bookmobile sourced offset printing to deliver a higher quality product at a lower price. If anyone is facing a book project and unsure of their next steps, we highly recommend the team at Bookmobile. They will walk you through the publishing landscape and explore all options so you can create a beautiful publication.”

“When I decided to self-publish, I researched several possibilities and decided to go with Bookmobile. This was the best decision I could have made. Working with Bookmobile for book design was such a pleasure. Their staff thoughtfully and professionally guided me through every step, and their suggestions were always presented with explanations for their choices and respect for my responses. The professional quality of The Key of Idelisia, Book One is outstanding. Each time I have presented my book to a librarian or bookseller, their immediate response has been not only positive but remarkably appreciative. My book’s appearance, both inside and out, speaks of professional care and right decisions regarding font, chapter headings, layout, front and back and spine treatments, everything down to paper color and weight. I could not be happier with the finished product. I highly recommend Bookmobile to anyone wishing to have a thoroughly professional treatment for their manuscript.”
