The publishing process involves the undertaking of several steps, beginning with the submission of a book proposal to the attention of the Manager. At present, the Company publishes books that are either aligned to the curricula issued by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Information or the Caribbean Examination Council. The submission of solicited and unsolicited manuscripts aligned to these curricula are welcomed.

- The book title
- A table of contents
- Whether or not you have copyrighted the content of the manuscript

Note: The proposal should be no more than five pages.
Creating Books
Spreading Knowledge
The Jamaica Publishing House Limited emerged shortly after Jamaica’s celebration of Independence and, therefore, its mission statement ‘Creating Books…Spreading Knowledge’ is quite fitting, as it encapsulates the Company’s deliberate intention to utilize local / regional talent to author publications and to further the post-independence educational development of the country and the wider Caribbean.
