A vending machine of stories that fascinates the world

And Francis Ford Coppola as well

Japan is often referred to as a "vending machine superpower" because of the abundance of vending machines on every street corner. In Europe, on the other hand, vending machines were not popular because of their negative impact on the landscape and environment. However, unique vending machines have appeared in recent years. In France, there is a vending machine that provides you with stories that have fascinated people around the world.

Charles de Gaulle Airport, the gateway to France, is crowded with tourists and business travelers from all over the world. In Terminal 2, there is a station for trains heading to central Paris and other destinations. People were passing the time in the waiting area. Most of them were staring at their smartphone screens.

At Emory University’s Woodruff Library, stories don’t just live on the shelves. They exist in The Short Story Dispenser, printed on glossy receipts and dispensed with the click of a button. 

 They exist in The Short Story Dispenser, printed on glossy receipts and dispensed with the click of a button. Students who stroll through the library basement may find themselves face to face with the quirky new machine just outside of Banjo Coffee. 

A metal cylinder with three buttons and a tall glass rectangle with the words “Short Story Dispenser,” the machine’s instructions are simple: “Select, Read, Enjoy.” As of Feb. 13, Emory’s new toy for voracious readers and procrastination-prone students alike has finally arrived on campus. 

Many students — including (L-R) Ethan Sun, Anjanay Nangia, Evan Bellusci and Dylan Sun — have enjoyed printing out stories and poems to read from the Short Story Dispenser on Level 1 of the Woodruff Library.

The word most people use to describe it is “cool.”

Yes, there is a cool new interactive machine near the Banjo Coffee shop on Level 1 of Woodruff Library — a Short Story Dispenser. The dispenser is an Emory Arts project to highlight poems, prose and comics by Emory authors, particularly students, as well as literature from writers around the world.

I like to travel but I’m not a very good packer. Admittedly, I usually forget something and end up having to buy it at the airport or my final destination. That’s usually not a big deal. [...] 

Flying without something to read is unthinkable to me. It used to be that I could count on finding a magazine on the plane, but that’s not always the case now. Since the pandemic, the presence of those in-flight magazines has been hit or miss. Therefore, I have to pick up some reading material at an airport bookshop or newsstand. But if I’m ever flying out of the airport in Wichita, Kansas, I’d have another option: the short story dispenser.

According to the Wichita Public Library, Wichita became one of four cities to receive Short Édition short story dispensers thanks to the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation in 2018. 

Wichita engineer Kim Burton, a senior manager in product support for Textron Aviation, was at the Eisenhower National Airport on Wednesday flying out to California to a conference for women in aviation and discovered one of the Wichita Public Library’s sh

Wichita engineer Kim Burton is so popular on TikTok that when asked about views for one video she posted this week, she casually said, “I think we’re at, like, a half million for today.”

Maynooth University's new Short Story Dispenser

At Maynooth University Library a new machine can been seen in reception called a 'Short Story Dispenser'. It spits out poetry, short stories and graphics on receipt paper. They last one, three or five mins. Some fun, some serious. The machine was developed in France by Short Editions and is slowly going global at hotels, airports and libraries.

Henry McKean spoke with a short story writer and visited Maynooth University and met the students trying out the machine with the librarians...

The machine dispenses literature, in short story format. Customers can choose from a menu of printed out stories lasting one, three, or five minutes.

Among the facilities on the campus of Maynooth University these days is a small machine that looks it might sell bus tickets to Dublin.

In fact, it dispenses literature, in short-story format. Customers can choose from a menu of printed out stories lasting one, three, or five minutes.

And unlike most vending machines, this one doesn’t charge.

Le Cub'Édito est expérimenté dans 17 écoles de la Région

Les histoires courtes de Short Édition ont envahi les rues et maintenant les écoles. La maison d'édition grenobloise a adapté ses distributeurs de récits aux personnes dyslexiques après avoir remporté un appel à projets, lancé par la Région. "C'est dans la continuité de notre logique, qui est de rendre la littérature accessible à tous," détaille Sylvia Tempesta, en charge du développement des produits.
