Shipping policy

At The Literary Oracle, all books are produced using print-on-demand, which means each book is printed especially for you once an order is placed.

Print on Demand Fulfilment

Our books are printed and shipped through IngramSpark, a global print-on-demand and distribution partner.

To reduce delivery times and environmental impact, your book is printed in your country or region wherever possible and shipped directly from the local printing partner.

Order Processing Time

Because books are printed to order, please allow:

  • 5–10 business days for printing and processing after your order is placed

Once printing is complete, your order is prepared for shipment.

Shipping & Delivery

Shipping times vary depending on your location and local postal or courier services.

Once your order has shipped:

  • You will receive a shipping notification via SMS

  • Tracking details will be sent by the local courier or postal service in your country

Phone Number & Tracking Notifications

We collect a phone number at checkout solely so that the courier or postal service in your country can:

  • Send shipping updates

  • Provide tracking notifications

  • Contact you if delivery issues arise

Your phone number is used only for delivery purposes and is not shared for marketing.

Shipping Destinations

We ship worldwide, with books printed and dispatched locally where possible through IngramSpark’s global network.

Delivery timeframes may vary based on:

  • Country or region

  • Local postal services

  • Peak periods or public holidays

Delays & Exceptions

While we aim to meet estimated timeframes, delays may occasionally occur due to:

  • Printing schedules

  • Postal or courier delays

  • Customs processing (where applicable)

If your order appears delayed beyond reasonable timeframes, please contact us at:
