Harvard Bookstore to Debut Espresso Book Machine

Harvard Bookstore will christen its new Espresso Book Machine at 4 p.m. this afternoon, Jacket Copy reports, with help from author E.L. Doctorow. Appropriately, the first book printed on the on-demand machine will be a facsimile of the Bay Psalm Book (possibly this one, offered through Google Books).

Also today, the bookstore will announce the winner of its "name the machine" contest, so stay tuned for that.
