ABSTRACT:
An apparatus includes a conveyor for moving books in a spaced apart relationship along a predetermined path along which each book receives a length of adhesive. A roller is supported for rotation about its longitudinal central axis and has an outer cylindrical surface for receiving lengths of adhesive. A glue gun is provided for applying adhesive to the outer surface of the roller. The adhesive applied to the outer surface of the roller is of lengths equal to lengths of adhesive to be applied to the books. The lengths of adhesive are spaced apart by nonadhesive lengths. A nonadhesive length is equal to the spacing between adjacent lengths of adhesive on the books. A length of adhesive is transferred from the outer surface of the roller to a book when the book moves along the predetermined path and into contact with the length of adhesive.
