PublishYourSefer.com – About Our Reprints Program
This company partners with HebrewBooks.org and Lulu.com (disclosure: I am an employee of Lulu) to offer on-demand reprinting for over 12,000 books. Wow! How is this done?…
Lulu Web Services (Lulu API)
This is accomplished through the Lulu api, which “allows partners and outside developers to programmatically publish books.” Given that Lulu authors maintain full ownership of their books, why can’t libraries offer on-demand reprints of digitized books?
PublishYourSefer’s sister site, They offer consulting and services for digitizing collections, using print on demand to “monetize” collections, Also have periodicals and books for purchase.
