Washington’s Village Books told customers recently that next month the store will have an Espresso book machine and will start selling Symtio cards for downloadable ebooks and audio books. Co-owner Chuck Robinson says, “There are obviously changes rapidly taking place in our industry, and
instead of standing on the sidelines and waiting to see what will
happen, we’ve decided to jump right in.” Wisely, he recognizes that much of the demand for the Espresso will come from customers wanting help with self-publishing. And “he personally wants to print books on local history that he’s enjoyed but have been out of print.”
