I am a voracious reader. I always believe that books can let me wander to places I’ve never been to; places that are only alive in my imagination. Books also let me in to trade secrets that are otherwise hidden in the real world. They also give answers to otherwise unanswerable questions. Books, to me, are everything. If I have questions, I turn to the pages of books. If there’s something I do not understand, again, it’s the books that provide me with new perceptions.

Ultimately, books are also wonder workers when it comes to getting help with your brochure printing projects. I found a site where the author suggests a list of books that can inspire and share new ideas and choices to help you with getting the kind of brochure that you want and need. (http://desktoppub.about.com/cs/books1/tp/brochurebooks.htm) Advice from these books, according to the author, range from innovative ideas, to a choice on paper, type, paper folds, cut, color, as well as binding to get the ultimate brochure from the resources that you have.

1. Creating Brochures and Booklets (Graphic Design Basics), by Val Adkins;

2. Brochures 4, by B. Martin Pederson;

3. More Brochures, a compilation by Rockport Publishers;

4. Creative Edge Brochures, by Gail D. Finke;

5. The Best of Brochure Design 5; and Design 6 (the first one is published, again, by Rockport Publishers; while the latter is authored by Cheryl Cullen).

I hope you get the time to browse any one of these books. It sure as heck beats going to a brochure printing company you don’t know, and haggling with every penny you got for your marketing brochures.
