Actually, it isn't.
There are Print On Demand stations that will print and bind a book on the spot, from an electronic original. Quality has been getting steadily better, and it can be hard to tell a POD book from a traditionally published title. There's no particular reason why something like this
couldn't be installed in a bookstore to handle low demand titles.
