“Bling for Your Book!”

YearbookLife offers many accessories for your school’s yearbooks!  Contact us for pricing on all of the following options:

Yearbook Supplements:  Do you have more events from the year that didn’t make your yearbook deadline?  Want all of those Spring and end of year celebrations included too?  Then you can produce a Yearbook Supplement.  Designed separately from your book, but utilizing the same software, these 4 to 24 page supplements can be created as an addition to your book.  Pre-applied, ready-to-use tape strips enable anyone to just peel and stick the supplement in the back of the book.

Inside Cover Printing (soft cover books only): Don’t want that inside cover to be wasted space?  Have some pictures, or art, or text you’d like to add?  Printing can be done on the inside cover of our soft cover books!

Custom Endsheets (hard cover books only): Endsheets are the thick paper attached to both the inside front and back covers of your book and the flyleaf.  Customize these sheets to represent your school’s colors or to better reflect the color and mood of your book.   Available Colors: Forest Green, Felt Gray, Red, Navy Blue, Black, Royal Blue, and Goldenrod

Embossing and Debossing (hard cover books only):  Embossing and Debossing are techniques which create a raised (embossed) or impressed (debossed) image on the book.  Both techniques can be used with either foil or ink to create special visual effects and textures.

Cover Personalization: Would you like each student’s name printed on the cover of their book?  Or how about their name, their own photo, or even a few customized icons  to show off their favorite activities?  Contact us to find out which personalization is available for your cover.

Autograph Pages: You want to be able to use every page of your book for photos and memories of the school year!  So why not include our pre-printed four-page Autograph Page Supplements?  Designed with an Elementary theme or Middle/High School theme these pre-printed supplements enable students and staff to easily customize their own books with personal messages from others.

…and don’t forget about our 2014 Best Yearbook Contest
