An advance reader copy (ARC), also known as an uncorrected proof, is a pre-published, almost-complete version of a new book that is circulated to people who read it before print, such as professional reviewers and book bloggers. These advance copies allow them to read the book before its publication date so their reviews can coincide with the book's debut. They have the same cover art as the published book unless noted otherwise. Also, they often are more collectible.
