Printing: October 2008

Amazon Launches UK POD Service; Partner Unknown

October 7, 2008 | Permalink | Comments (0) | Listen

TheBookseller says Amazon is launching a print-on-demand service in the United Kingdom:

Amazon.com owns POD publisher BookSurge in the US, but the UK business has not divulged who will be handling the printing of POD titles in the UK.

In April, a spokesperson for Amazon.co.uk said the company -- at that time -- had no plans to bring BookSurge to the UK.
