Our Approach

Author-centric

At Lemur Press, first and foremost we respect authors. We appreciate the passion, labor, and unique talent that authors pour into their work. We want to enable and empower authors to once again share their books with readers, and generate new royalty payments, with generous and transparent non-binding contracts.

Data-driven

Our approach to title selection is based on the data of readers’ demand. We analyze user search patterns to discover which out-of-print books are still coveted and sparking curiosity, and we seek to represent all genres, in order to reflect the full breadth of the human experience.

Guided by Principle

We will never wittingly publish books that promote or provide instruction for: violence (including hate speech) against particular groups or peoples, false science and data used to support prejudice or inequality, or misinformation and unverified claims regarding health and safety. We also reserve the right to refuse to engage with authors who are known to have abused, exploited, or caused harm to others, even if their work itself may seem innocuous.
