Not everyone wants to order thousands of books at once and pay to keep half of them in inventory. To meet the demand for short-run books produced quickly, AGS has fine-tuned an online Print On Demand ordering system—Virtual Publication Management! Now you can create a convenient digital library with AGS, then log onto our website at www.ags.com/vpm and order your books right from your desktop! We'll print, bind and ship your titles to within eight business days!

AGS uses the latest digital printing technology to produce short-run, quick-turn books with quality that rivals offset printing. Our DocuColor iGen3 produces your color covers at near offset quality, while the Canon ImageRunner 110's will turn out all your black and white text at a rate of 110 pages per minute. And with our in-house bindery, you can choose perfect, plasticoil, wire-o, GBC, or saddle stitch binding to finish your on-demand product. Our system is not limited to electronic files. If you have backlisted titles, legacy data or out-of-print hard copies, AGS can work with you to efficiently capture those assets digitally. From your secure online library, you can view titles and order the amount of books you want when you need them.
