Catalog editions and examples.
Know what your order includes.
Published sells wholesale catalog advertising to publishing companies. Each open edition has its own audience, circulation, dates, prices, artwork requirements and service terms. Quarter pages come in packs of four. Review the edition details before submitting an order; an unpaid request is not a confirmed allocation.
Your saved order shows whether card checkout is available. Your workspace must confirm payment and allocation before its author slots are ready to use. Returning from checkout is not a payment receipt. The publisher sets its own author resale prices.

Research is different from circulation.
The September 8, 2026 research snapshot contains 141,121 organization and program records, concentrated in education and libraries. Categories overlap and some records share addresses. None was marked postal-validated or mailing-ready in that snapshot. It does not represent a mailing commitment.
The initial Waiting Room, Small Group & Bible Study, and Bookstore audiences have separate research requirements. Only an edition’s published distribution details describe its planned mailing. Sending a catalog does not guarantee display, readership, bookstore stocking or book sales.
Historical audience research: September 8, 2026
These figures preserve the original research record. They are not current recipient totals, approved circulation or mailing commitments. Use the selected edition’s confirmed distribution details when discussing an order.

New catalog covers and sample placements.
The nine new covers, grouped catalog photograph, and four placement examples were created with OpenAI’s image-generation tool using the supplied Published identity and CBB format references. They illustrate the design direction; they are not photographs of produced or mailed catalogs. Quarter pages show four ads, half pages show two, and full pages and author spotlights show one complete feature.
Stillwater by Sarah Bennett, The Long Way Home by James Ellis, Gathered in Grace by Emily Carter, and Small Things Brave by Daniel Brooks are fictional examples. Author portraits and book artwork are generated, not endorsements or actual customer placements. Production dimensions, bleed, book metadata, links and color proofs need the designer’s approval before print. New designs do not establish circulation, sales results or final edition specifications.
Brand and photography.
Published logos and General Sans typography come from the supplied identity. General Sans is by Indian Type Foundry and is served through Fontshare. Editorial photographs and illustrative workspace graphics do not depict customers, mailing recipients or endorsements.
