How Membership Works


T

he unique way The Folio Society is set up allows us to produce books of such high quality at a low price, astonishing to the rest of the publishing word. The secret is our membership.

Because members commit to support the society by agreeing to buy new books each year, we are able to plan volumes accurately and keep costs low. In return we’re committed to providing excellent value as well as the highest quality to our membership.

Your money back

Choose one of our Joining Offers. When the books arrive, examine them for 10 days. If you're not completely satisfied, return your books for a full refund. There will be no further commitment, and your free gift is yours to keep.

Your choices
Prospectus

If you decide to keep your Joining Offer, all you need to do is choose your books from our catalogue which will be sent out to you with your first parcel. You'll find a huge range of titles, but there are also new books and sets being published throughout the year not included in the prospectus. Our Limited Edition programme provides yet more irresistible books that will leave you spoilt for choice and all count towards your membership.


We guarantee  We will not send you a book you haven't ordered.

Your Gifts

Good value doesn’t end once you’ve joined! Each year, as a thank you for renewing your membership, we like to give you a present. We specifically create a high quality presentation volume – greatly anticipated and enjoyed by long-standing members - as a gift and search out other offers we think you’ll appreciate.


A True Society

From the actual room dedicated to our members use in London to our soon–to–come online reading group where members can share their thoughts on our books, we exist as a true society of people who are brought together by our shared love for beautiful books.


News and Events

The Folio Society magazine and newsletters are sent out to all members, giving details of forthcoming books, events, competitions and launches that might be of interest, as well as a range of articles from well known writers and academics.
