Hi David, I'm fairly certain that some of those titles do indeed utilize print-on-demand technology (at least the ones related to Dexter Sinister) and would be characterzied as such by the author / artists were they to give a format description of their publication(s) (I recently heard them describe the work that way during a public talk) . . .the third title, printed from an e-journal, may or may not be a print-on-demand product, so you may need another term there -- wouldn't something like "compilation" or (digital?) "anthology" make sense . . .or maybe it's just a re-print? (Is it important to note that it's a reprint of a digital object?) In any event, "print-on-demand" is by no means equivalent to self-publishing or a vanity press -- it's a format and a technology and one increasignly used by publishers, including art museums (a number of public art galleries in Canada have recently switch to e-publishing platforms, most of them "print-on-demand") . . .I assume that there may be important distinctions between an e-book, which may or may not be downloadable, and a true print-on-demand product, that is actually published as a physical object by the print-on-demand provider following purchase by the user and / or auhtor / press . . .in sopme cases it could be hard to tell--if you just have a physical copy siting in your hands--whether you are dealing with a print-on-demand product or not, since it may look exactly like a traditional print monograph. best AL -- Adam Lauder W.P.
