Goodbye?

Lulu was founded on the philosophy of breaking down barriers that prevent talented authors from sharing their knowledge and telling their stories. Our goal is to help authors reach the broadest possible audience by providing tools to create, publish, market and sell their remarkable work. In an ongoing commitment to our founding philosophy, we are making the following changes to our Digital Rights Management (DRM):
On January 15, 2013 we will remove the option to apply Adobe Digital Rights Management (DRM) to new and revised EPUB and PDF formatted eBooks.
On March 12, 2013 all remaining DRM-protected eBooks will be set to Private Access, temporarily removing them from the Lulu marketplace until placed back into General or Direct Access by the author.
If you have a DRM-protected eBook, you must revise and re-publish the title at your earliest convenience, in order to continue offering it on Lulu.com after March 12, 2013. For more detailed information on how this change could affect you or your readers, please see this article: DRM & eBooks Published in the Lulu Marketplace.
Once this process completes, we believe your readers will enjoy a more integrated shopping, downloading, and reading experience. For more information about why we have changed our DRM policy, please read this blog post by our COO, Tom Bright: Lulu Says Goodbye to DRM.
Thank you for choosing Lulu to tell your story. We wish you great success in the coming year.
Your Friends at Lulu
