CFP: Print on Demand (Against the Grain)

CFP: Print on Demand (Against the Grain)

The November 2009 Issue of “Against the Grain” will carry a special section of articles on the topic “Is Anything Still Out of Print?” The writers will explore the themes of Print on Demand (POD), Digitization on Demand (DOD), the out of print marketplace, free and priced ebooks on
the internet and in databases. Will we see a future where books never go out of print, or are we already there? We are looking for a few more articles, especially regarding digitized rare books and archives and another article on the topic of purchasing used books as a primary acquisitions tool. Articles should run 1500-1800 words with a mid September deadline
