UBuildABook prints and publishes yearbooks for schools and organizations. Yearbooks are hard cover or soft cover in 8.5x11 or 9x12, and ship 2 weeks after proof approval. No contract is required, and our best pricing starts at 50 books. Sample pricing starts at $8.98 per book for 100 soft cover yearbooks of up to 40 pages.
A yearbook has a deadline no other book has: it has to be in students' hands before school lets out, and it has to include the events that happen right before that. We built our yearbook printing around that problem.
Your final files are due only 2 to 3 weeks before your planned ship date, so spring sports, prom and graduation can still make the book. You order the exact number of yearbooks you need instead of guessing months ahead, and if more families want one later we can reprint as few as 6 books for up to 2 years.
