Anadvance reading copy,advance review copy,advance reader\'s edition,advance copy, orreader\'s edition(ARCorARE) is a free copy of a newbookgiven by a publisher to booksellers, librarians, journalists, celebrities, or others, or as a contest or school prize,[1]before the book is printed for mass distribution.

ARCs may lack the finaldust jacket, formatting, and binding of the finished product. The text of an advance edition may also differ slightly from the market book (the final version that is distributed for sale), because changes may be made after advance readers make comments or find errors in the manuscript. When a celebrity reader or journalist gives an endorsement, that may be added to the dust-cover and other promotional items.

ARCs are normally distributed three to six months before the book is officially released to reviewers, bookstores, magazines, and (in some cases) libraries.[citation needed]

Book collectors often seek ARCs, which may contain text errors or typos that add value, as coins or stamps with errors do.

Before it was a common practice to produce and distribute ARCs in this way, publishers used uncorrected, boundgalley proofsonly for the editing and proof-reading process. Typically, they were bound in plain paper covers without illustrations, printed in black and white, and significantly larger than their market book counterparts. In contrast, ARCs usually are printed in full color and have bindings, format, and illustrations that are similar to those of the market book. The phrase \'uncorrected proof\' appears on the ARC cover.

Although ARCs are usually free promotional items, some early versions of books, even some labeled by the publisher as ARCs, are sold to the public.
