Bookstore changes you need to know about

The Bookstore at the AMPP Annual Conference + Expo, March 6-10, 2022 in San Antonio, Texas, will be fully Print-On-Demand as part of the new AMPP digital printing process.

What does this mean for books you want to buy while at the show?

Instead of a book(s) being shipped from the AMPP warehouse to the show in San Antonio for purchase, books will be printed upon your order on site at a self-serve kiosk and sent directly to you from AMPP’s POD vendor.

The biggest change is that you will not have a physical book to take with you from the physical store, and take up space in your luggage. The store will have physical sample books to look at and review before purchasing.
