Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night (of reading) 🎄🎁📚
The Troy Book Makers is a full-service book printer, created by independent bookstore owners, that h The process couldn’t be simpler. Still have questions?
Our aim is to produce attractive, well-designed books at a low cost to the customer. We work closely with you to create a beautiful, custom-made book in as few as six weeks. You give us your book’s digital content, and we design, format, print and bind your book using the newest technology. Our short-run printing services allow us to print as few as ten copies of your book, in comparison to tradit
ional print runs that can number in the thousands (and often end up being stored in the garage for years). We also keep the formatted book in our digital archives, making reprinting simple as the demand for your book increases. We hope you’ll consider working with us. Our collective half century of experience in the book business, combined with our knowledgeable staff members and publishing contacts, provide a unique wealth of resources at an affordable price. Feel free to call us at 518-689-1083, send us an email, or, if you’re in the area, set up a time to come see us! We’re located across the street from Market Block Books at 291 River Street (Suite 180 – first floor, in the back), Troy, NY 12180.
