Hybrid Publishing 

What is a Hybrid Publisher: A publisher utilizing an author-subsidized business model for the majority of its business. Hybrid publishing companies behave just like traditional publishing companies in all respects, except that they publish books using an author-subsidized business model, as opposed to financing all costs themselves and, in exchange, return a higher-than-industry-standard share of sales proceeds to the author. A hybrid publisher makes income from a combination of publishing services and book sales.
