ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Books to be jacketed are fed in open position and in a first direction to an assembly station where the covers of a fresh- ly arrived book enter between the central panel and the flaps of a prefabricated jacket which is transported to the assembly station in second direction counter to the first direction. The feed of books is interrupted in response to an interruption of the transport of jackets, or vice versa, and each book is inspected prior to being fed to the assembly station in order to determine whether or not the end papers adhere to the respective covers. The jackets are prefabricated from rectangular blanks which are withdrawn from a stack and are folded by pairs of coating mechanical folding devices at least one which is heated to provide each jacket with perman- ent creases in regions where the flaps adhere to the central panel. Jacket books are closed and descend into a channel or directly onto a conveyor from which they can be removed by hand for stack- ing at one or both sides of the assembly station.
