After March 1st, 2021, retailers (Hachette, Ingram, and Amazon) participating in Lulu’s Global Distribution service will no longer accept Saddle Stitch Bound products.


Retailers will remove your Saddle Stitch project from their site on or after March 1st. Your project will continue to be available on the Lulu Bookstore. Projects with more than 32 pages can be made available for Global Distribution using a different binding type such as paperback and a new ISBN. To see products available for Global Distribution, please review the Eligible Products Guide available on this page.
