Penguin Group (USA) is the latest publisher to make its books available through On Demand Books’s Espresso Book Machine’s “digital-to-print at retail" sales channel. The arrangement will enable bookstores and soon mass merchandise retailers with EBMs to reproduce a selection of Penguin backlist titles, including books from Viking, Riverhead, Dutton, and Puffin, among others.
“We are excited about this new partnership with On Demand Books,” says Doug Whiteman, Penguin Group (USA) executive v-p of business operations. “Penguin is always looking for new ways to bring our writers to readers, and On Demand Books gives us another channel to further fulfill that mission.”
