Trade discounted hardcover editions are usually fiction or current nonfiction and are generally published for the general consumer and deal with subjects having a broad mass appeal. Publishers promote and advertise these titles more aggressively and print runs are greater than the norm.

Juvenile Trade Hardcover Editions: Popular fiction or nonfiction books designed for children, usually with subject matter that has wide appeal. Published with a glued binding and a hardcover.

Publisher's Library Reinforced Editions: A book published with a high quality, usually fanned, sewn and glued binding. Sometimes known as a "School" or "Library" binding. This binding has the durability required in a high use library setting and is usually reserved for children's materials. All publisher library reinforced editions will receive the discount quoted in this category. Publishers designate which titles are "Publisher's Library Reinforced Editions" to Brodart.

Single Reinforced Editions: A book published with a durable fanned and glued hardcover binding that may or may not be sewn. Also known as "School" and "Library" binding. Subject matter may be directed at adults or juveniles (though they are usually reserved for children's materials) and may be fiction or nonfiction. Publishers designate which titles are "Single Reinforced Editions" to Brodart.
