Low Cost/No Cost Tips for Sustainability in Cultural Heritage is published in the most sustainable manner possible. As well as being available as an eBook, the print version is print on demand. Traditional printing books are normally printed in the Far East and shipped to the point of sale, with more books being printed than are needed leading to approximately 40% being pulped. With print on demand, only what is needed is printed, where it's needed and delivered directly to who needs it. Print on demand significantly cuts waste, distribution and energy costs associated with the moving and storage of books. Printing happens at the closest point to where its ordered therefore cutting the final mile delivery mileage to a minimum.
