A Few Notes (Admissions)
We don't have a Print on Demand Program No charged committee or task force No mandate to prioritize PoD services over other
services
Our digital collection (that would be considered for PoD) is small Most monographic material would be pulled from
items digitized by the OCA.

Digital Content
Open Content Alliance (Internet Archive) 3,195 items scanned between February 2008 and
February 2010 Wide variety of file formats
Technical Reports, University Publications

Some Goals
Ultimately, a 'Buy a Print Copy' option for all eligible digital content
Within reach, offer a PoD 'store-front' of titles selected from our OCA collection (along with additional titles digitized for this purpose.)

Poor choice of title

Lulu - right down the street
Moved into the neighborhood in 2009 Very interested in having a library partner Think of Lulu as a vendor, not a service

FedEx/Kinkos (really!)
• Digital textbooks
• Single or small runs to add to collection
• Collate color pages
![Page 13: Becoming PoD People Jamie D. Bradway Preservation Librarian NCSU Libraries February 11, 2011.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020115/55167da05503469d698b5c74/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
NCSU gets Caffeinated
Espresso Book Machine installed at Bookstore March 2010 Merger of Copy services with Bookstore
Limitations Irregular PDF's Color Trim size less than 8.5” x 11”

Prepping Files
The crux of the problem Cannot be fully automated with good results and
free software Have developed workarounds that minimizes staff
supervision Irfanview Scan Tailor Various home brewed scripts
Processing will take ~4 hours per for average book
![Page 15: Becoming PoD People Jamie D. Bradway Preservation Librarian NCSU Libraries February 11, 2011.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020115/55167da05503469d698b5c74/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Getting to the Next Stage
• Working proof of concept
• Storefront of a few dozen titles
• Continue to seek highly automated process
• Kirtas’s Bookscan Editor?
• Develop use cases and investigate Digitize on Demand
