Join Inpress

We are currently closed to new publisher applications for 2026.

Established in 2002, Inpress supports independent book publishers across the UK, Ireland and beyond, offering comprehensive sales and distribution services alongside genuine business development opportunities. As an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation, Inpress operates on a not-for-profit basis, reinvesting any surplus directly into marketing member publishers' titles.

Applications are assessed by the Inpress board, which includes member publishers, based on market potential, artistic excellence, contribution to literary diversity, growth plans, and fit with the existing cohort.

The next round of applications will be announced next year. The closing date for the last round was 11th May 2026. To fill out a short expression of interest and receive the next application form when we re-open submissions, please click here.
