Faber and Faber launches print on demand classics to make available a large number of titles which until now have been out of print (P-O-D website:
Faber finds). The launch was written about in the
Guardian Books section (2 May 2008) and talked about on the Today Programme this morning (3 June 2008). The Guardian wrote:
“The new titles, which will retail at about £9, and be printed with automatically generated cover designs, will not be stocked in large quantities by booksellers, but will be available to order through most major booksellers and the majority of internet-based book retailers.The publisher aims to publish up to 20 new titles every month, after the launch list of 100 books to be made available this June.”
A day after its initial piece on the “print on demand” project the Guardian invited a group of writers to suggest titles of books which they would be requesting for reprint.The publisher, interviewed on the BBC4 Today Programme, informs that once 50 people sign their online petition ‘lost & found’ in favour of a particular title it will be published again.
