Many authors are eager to print a short run of their book using their own funds. If they choose printing-on-demand, they will spend less money than a minimum print run at an offset printing house would require. Moreover, what they get is a fully-featured book with an ISBN registration code, which can be sent to libraries. In addition to that, each single book within the print run can be made unique, which will increase its value. Due to digital printing, many books that otherwise would never have come out have actually seen the light. A rare book and a unique reader can now find each other!
