The BIBLIO-MAT

This video demonstrates the mechanisms behind the Biblio-Mat, which dispenses a random used book to any customer who inserts two dollars into the vending machine. Craig Small custom-made the machine, as an alternative approach to the discount sidewalk bin, for the Monkey's Paw, an antiquarian bookshop in Toronto.
