What are print-on-demand books and how are they affecting the publishing industry??

What will be an ideal response?


ANSWER:
Print-on-demand technology prints books only when customers order them. Cost-conscious professors try to help your budget when they ask textbook publishers to print-on-demand a limited number of chapters they feel are important for their students. This is a niche market for small publishers, which will print out-of-publication books.
