Anonymous Patron writes “One From The Patriot-News, in Pennsylvania, on A tractor-trailer load of children’s books that found new life yesterday on the floor of the Lebanon County Christian Ministries warehouse. Until recently the 52,000 books were headed for a shredder at Arnold Logistics, part of 15 million books Arnold destroys every year for publisher Simon & Schuster.
Now most of the books are likely to end up in the homes of Lebanon County children who might not have been able to buy the books.”
Inneffiency of print publishing
15 million books a year shredded!
Publishers need to work on print-on-demand so there is not so much waste in the process.
