What should my imprint page look like?

Your imprint page is usually on the reverse side of the title page, and is also known as the copyright page. It may contain as little or as much information as you like.

We recommend that you print your publisher details, the publication date, copyright information and ISBN or ISMN.

You may also choose to print the cataloguing statement on this page. This is optional.
