The convergence of online book selling, digital printing, digital
document workflow management and the computerization of small
parcel logistics created a unique opportunity to create a viable
commercial model for printing and supplying books on demand. This
innovation was swiftly embraced by the academic publishing
community heralding the rescue of the languishing academic
monograph. The possibilities captured the imagination of creative
academic and niche publishers enabling custom publishing, student
editions of monographs, self-compiled wiki books and even the
establishment of new university presses and open access publishers.
The Impact of Print on-Demand on Academic Books takes an in-depth
look at this phenomenon by looking back on two decades of
innovation, reviewing the present state of academic publishing with
respect to works being printed on demand and compiling the current
forecasts and speculation about the future of academic and niche
publishing given the impact of print on-demand.
