Small, focussed print runs

New lease of life for newspapers
“The Newspaperclub team, all of whom have backgrounds working online, are creating a website that will allow people to design and print small runs of newspapers. The newspapers themselves will be printed at existing commercial presses. “This is actual physical stuff which for digital people is really exciting,” says Russell Davies, one of the founders of newspaperclub. The first edition the group printed was a collection of their favourite blog posts, pulled together as a Christmas present for friends. Recently the Cabinet Office asked them to produce an experimental paper covering just one postcode. Other requests have included producing a souvenir paper for a wedding. Newspaperclub is one of a number of new services moving us towards more personalized papers.”
