Angus and Robertson are going to use print-on-demand Expresso book machines:

I think this is a good thing. Let customer demand drive the sales rather than availability.

It looks like a great idea, but as the article pointed out, the range available for print is the cruncher: we can only hope that enough variety is available to make it work, and then you know they won't be doing the type of books with lots of colour pages, so there will still be plenty of preprinted ones on the shelves. . .
