An automatic book binding machine for cut-sheets includes a main body, a belt conveyor mounted on the main body and a feeder mounted on the main body and adapted to feed cut-sheets. A front cover of the cut-sheets has an identification mark for identifying one book from other books. A detection sensor is mounted on the belt conveyor for detecting one end of the cut-sheets. A nozzle mounted on the belt conveyor is controlled by the detection sensor to automatically apply a linear band of glue along one edge of the cut-sheets. A first mark sensor is mounted on the belt conveyor to sense a detectable mark on one of the cut-sheets and control the nozzle to stop applying glue to the cut-sheet. A second mark sensor is mounted on the belt conveyor to sense the detectable mark and control the nozzle to resume application of glue to the cut-sheet. A pressing plate is mounted on the main body for stacking up for storage the cut-sheets onto which the linear band of glue has been applied, aligning the sides of each cut-sheet, and pressing the glue-applied areas of the cut-sheets for each book from the top of the front cover in cooperation with the first and second mark sensors.
