Boydell and Brewer Combined Backlist Package
This package combines all five existing packages, containing 150 books, for libraries who would like to subscribe to all of them at once, with a lower administrative burden than subscribing to them individually. It has 150 essential titles which provide a holistic overview of three main subject areas: the Medieval world and its literature, histories and societies, music and the performing arts, and African politics and economics. All titles are in an EPUB as well as PDF format for enhanced accessibility.

The books in this package are shown below, or you can click on this icon to download the list of titles, authors, ISBN and year of publication in .xls format.
Library and institutional members are banded according to their size, in line with the Carnegie Classification and as recognised by Lyrasis. Based on this, our annual membership fees for a Single Package are:
| Tier | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Associate’s Colleges | CRKN Bands 1–5 | UK and European small | $3750 / £2600 | $3850 / £2675 | $3950 / £2750 |
| Baccalaureate/Master’s Colleges & Universities | CRKN Bands 6–9 | UK and European medium | $4950 / £3425 | $5045 / £3525 | $5200 / £3600 |
| Doctoral Universities | CRKN Bands 10–13 | UK large and European | $6750 / £4675 | $6925 / £4800 | $7100 / £4925 |
Membership is for a minimum of three years.
Shown in table are annual fees in USD (US Dollars, $) / GBP (Pound Sterling, £), excluding VAT.
Due to rising publication costs, a 2.5% annual increase has been applied for annual payments. The slight annual rise in membership fees reflects rising inflation rates alongside rising production costs for publishers globally. This enables us to continue to use membership revenue solely to produce new OA monographs, moving towards an affordable, sustainable model for the future of academic publishing. And while the rises are around 2.5%, in real terms they are no more than a rise of around $100 to $150 a year.
If you would like to prepay your entire 3 year subscription, please let us know. The 3 year prepayment option benefits from a fixed annual price with no price increase during the 3-year term.
Sign up for libraries will be facilitated by Lyrasis soon. In the meantime you can pledge your support via our simple sign up form using the button below, or you can simply email them on membersupport@lyrasis.org.
