Default Book from local library

Just picked up Origin by Dan Brown, in large print, of course from the local library. I am a bit taken back...looks like books are feeling the pinch of ebooks! The regular sized book has a soft-cover, pages are thinner than older books, and the print, altho,it is black, is not a true, deep black. Sort of a shade lighter....when they start printing in gray, I will definitely be more inclined to ebooks, or audio...my old eyes just have a hard time with gray print....I just don't see the shelf life of this version of book being long.... I haven't been to a book store lately, and am now wondering if this is the "new" book look, or is this just for libraries printing, or just large print version-will as when I return this. But I will be very careful with this book so I don't crease the covers.....
