A vanity press or vanity publisher, sometimes also subsidy publisher,[1] is a publishing house where the author pays to have the book published, and signs a restrictive contract which involves surrendering significant rights.[2] It is not to be confused with hybrid publishing, where the publisher and author collaborate and share costs and risks, or with assisted self-publishing, where the author pays publishing services to assist with self-publishing his own book, and retains all rights.
