Marquand Books | Services

Design

Our design process is highly collaborative and characterized by functionality, sensitivity, and intelligence. Working closely with our clients, we concentrate on the publication’s content along with its larger goals. Our method is informed by our experience but not confined by it—we value flexibility.

Production and Printing

Careful and precise pre-press and printing are critical components in our bookmaking process. Working closely with our designers, we ensure materials and printing techniques are tailored to each project. Color management for our books is provided through our pre-press partner I/O Color. We partner with a variety of premium printers who we have worked with for many years and who understand the demanding standards of art publishing.

Co-publishing and Distribution

We work on behalf of our clients to connect books to appropriate publishers and distributors, so their work is fully available to the book trade, museum shops, libraries, and online retailers. We have a strong relationship with every major art publisher, both academic and trade. Once a book is placed, we serve as liaison and guide between the publisher and our client.

Editorial

We work with authors, curators, and editors to manage manuscripts from beginning to end. Our extensive experience with museum publications gives us a broad art historical background, which informs and sharpens our editorial work. We have a diverse stable of art history editors, professional typesetters, and skilled proofreaders and indexers who refine our clients' words to the highest standards.

AI Policy

At Marquand Books, we recognize that artificial intelligence has become increasingly interwoven into our personal and professional lives. In limited cases, this technology is an effective tool, one that is capable of saving time and allowing us to focus our attention on undertakings that require human consideration, creativity, and thoughtfulness. However, we want to be clear, we never use artificial intelligence to create original content.
