Press Release Summary = Xlibris celebrates its 10th anniversary

Press Release Body = Philadelphia, PA, April 2, 2007 - April 2007 marks the 10-year
anniversary when Xlibris first began helping authors realize their dreams of
self-publishing their work.

In the past decade, the company has become a frontrunner in print-on-demand, digital
printing. Xlibris continues to revolutionize the industry with new products and
services, leading to even greater opportunities for self-published writers. To mark
the event, Xlibris has launched a new line of products and services all designed to
optimize the publishing experience for their authors.

"This truly is a milestone for us," Angela Wood, Xlibris COO, said. "When the
company first started 10 years ago, self-publishing had a negative connotation in
the publishing world and was tantamount to some degree as vanity publishing. Print
on demand technology was an expression we took great lengths to educate writers
about and that technology with our processes continue to evolve in ways that keeps
us apart from other providers. Now, many larger book publishers scour the shelves
and the Internet for self-published books that could fit their publishing program.
With content that essentially never goes out of print, our customers gain access to
a larger, otherwise unavailable audience." She also stated that the self-publishing
industry has revolutionized the world of publishing and opened up a whole new array
of options for writers. Wood continued, "In the span of a decade we have
consistently reinvented ourselves and positively increased the value of what our
customers can expect next. We are proud to be one of the pioneers of the industry,
and we look forward to another promising 10 years of development and new services
offerings."
