What are the costs of publishing academic monographs at your own expense?
1, ISBN fee: The author wants to publish at his own expense, and ISBN is relatively cheap. The fees charged by various publishers are different, about 9,000 yuan, which basically does not exceed 1 10,000. The book number of a single book is relatively expensive, generally ranging from 1 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, or even higher. Different publishers have different prices.

2. Printing cost of publishing books: This cost is also a relatively large link. Generally, it is printed by a printing enterprise with "publication" printing qualification, and the publishing house should check its qualification in advance. Because there are fewer such printing houses, unlike small ones, the cost may be higher, and the price of printing a small number of books is obviously different from that of printing a large number of books. The more, the lower the average cost. The price mainly depends on the number and specifications of books, such as 16k, 200-page 1200 books, generally around 15000, depending on the paper quality.

3. Other expenses: In addition to the ISBN and printing expenses, you may have to pay the following two expenses for publishing books at your own expense.

(1) editing fee: about 3,000 yuan per thousand words 100, which varies from publishing house to publishing house.

(2) Typesetting design: If the author designs or finds someone to design typesetting, it is estimated that the telephone bill will cost a certain amount of money, and the ambition is 1 1,000 yuan.

(3) Transportation expenses: This part of the expenses should also be included, because the expenses are quite large. At present, the post office is unwilling to do this business and is unwilling to take printed matter. Generally, logistics or consignment is used, and the consignment price is cheaper, but only where there is a train. If it is also 16k, 200 pages and 1000 volumes, the cost should be around 400-500. If logistics is used, it may be around 800- 1 100.

(4) Other minor expenses such as telephone charges, travel expenses and revision fees, 500 yuan. The total cost of self-published books in the Mainland is 40,000 ~ 50,000, and the scope of influence is affected by publishing houses, album numbers and specifications.
