The first Espresso Book Machine™ (“the EBM”) was installed and demonstrated today at the New York Public Library’s Science, Industry, and Business Library (SIBL). The patented automatic book making machine will revolutionize publishing by printing and delivering physical books within minutes. The EBM is a product of On Demand Books, LLC (“ODB” – www.ondemandbooks.com), the company founded by legendary publishing executive Jason Epstein and business partner Dane Neller, who joined SIBL’s Kristin McDonough for a private event there to speak about the EBM’s potential impact on the future of reading and publishing.
The Espresso Book Machine will be available to the public at SIBL through August, and will operate Monday- Saturday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. The New York Public Library’s Science, Industry and Business Library is located at 188 Madison Avenue (at 34th Street).

DIGITIZED BRF (BRAILLE) FILES FOR GUTENBERG.ORG EBOOKS
TravelBraille.com is taking requests for Braille transcriptions of
Gutenberg.org eBooks to BRF Braille. The transcriptions will be prepared by a
US Library of Congress Certified Braille Transcriber. There will be NO charge
for this service.
No assurance can or will be given that any particular file will be
transcribed priority will be given to those files in the Gutenberg Top 100
eBooks, Top 100 eBook Authors, and, quite frankly, the personal taste of the
Transcriber.
Some of these files may require detailed editing as to punctuation, Braille
contraction, formatting, chapter arrangements, etc. Volumes will be
approximately 150K each to make them easier to load into Braille NoteTakers,
etc. Formatting, editing, headers, chapter headings, page numbering, etc. will
meet or exceed 'Formatted Scan Quality'. The files will be structured for both
refreshable Braille and paper embossing.
For now, all requests must be submitted through the
http://www.TravelBraille.com website 'Contact Us' page.
As this will be a free service, your patience will be kindly appreciated.
-- John Edwin Miller, USA Library of Congress Certified Braille Transcriber.

...are there any of you who have read OVER 200 PG e-texts?
DP Proofreading doesn't count ;-)

NOTES:
To arrive at the Newsletter statistics a manual count was done on all the
'posted' listings found in the Newsletter Archives. For PG-EU the website
listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.
PREPRINTS -- http://preprints.readingroo.ms
Please note that the PrePrint files are just that, PrePrints, and thus may move
later to other locations, including the main collection or The Project
Gutenberg Consortia Center.

TravelBraille.com is taking requests for Braille transcriptions of
Gutenberg.org eBooks to BRF Braille. The transcriptions will be prepared by a
US Library of Congress Certified Braille Transcriber. There will be NO charge
for this service.
No assurance can or will be given that any particular file will be
transcribed – priority will be given to those files in the Gutenberg Top 100
eBooks, Top 100 eBook Authors, and, quite frankly, the personal taste of the
Transcriber.
Leading publishers, online retailers and channel partners have announced their support for Adobe Digital Editions today (see separate quote sheet). By using a new export feature built into Adobe InDesign(R) CS3, publishers can easily create new Adobe Digital Editions-ready content, helping to significantly reduce cost and conversion time. In addition, with versions for mobile platforms and reading devices also planned, Sony has committed to embed Adobe Digital Editions technology into its portable reader product line.
