Rats! I Meant to Select C4, not E4

January 24th, 2006

Two interesting photos of a book vending machine from The Elegant Variation.

Would this work for libraries so users can get books (maybe bestsellers) after the library closes? It could work like an ATM. Dip your library card, select latest Danielle Steel, and enjoy. The 24 hour book library (well, kinda - only for certain books).

Heck, if we are going to start delivering books, why not vending machines in malls, restaurants, cafes, and more. We need to continue to take the library out to our users. Is it me or should libraries just look at what Amazon.com does and copy them?
