April 04: What will the bookstore of the future be like? It may well do away with rows upon rows of shelved titles and look more like an Internet cafe with digital printing and binding facilities out the back. It may allow customers to select any title in the history of publishing and automatically print and bind that book in the time it takes to drink a cafe latte. Print on Demand (POD) is rapidly changing the way books are printed, published and consumed worldwide. The first POD facilities are already up and running in Australia, both at point-of-sale and publisher level. (via the EArtPh mailing list)
