Barnes & Noble Press vs StreetLib

Barnes & Noble Press is a free, direct publishing platform for Nook ebooks and print books, limiting distribution to Barnes & Noble's ecosystem. StreetLib is a global aggregator that distributes ebooks, print, and audio to multiple retailers, but takes a revenue share. Barnes & Noble Press offers no upfront cost but restricts reach, while StreetLib provides broader access at the cost of a percentage of sales. The choice depends on whether the author prioritizes exclusive focus on Barnes & Noble or wide distribution across many platforms.

Pick Barnes & Noble Press

Pick Barnes & Noble Press if you want free, direct access to the Nook and Barnes & Noble print market without sharing revenue, and you are comfortable with a narrower distribution focus.

Pick StreetLib

Pick StreetLib if you need global distribution across multiple ebook, print, and audio retailers and are willing to share a portion of revenue for that broader reach.
