Parisian book-vending machines


These Parisian book-vending machines sell classics, French-English dictionaries and cookbooks, priced at $2.45 each.
Link (Thanks, Digitaler Lumpensammler!)

Update: RBP sez, "Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro have similar book-vending machines on underground stations. Sao Paulo also has a public library in one station, where people can register and borrow books for free, including a few in Braille." Also: book-vending machines are on the streets of Barcelona, apparently.
