It’s been almost a year since it was first hyped, but the New York Public Library is finally displaying its espresso book machine, reports GalleyCat. Far from glamorous or futuristic, this clip from the machine’s developer, On Demand Books, plays more like an instructional video for new employees of a factory that makes bottle caps, toilet paper rolls or, well, books. And we can’t be sure, but we think the machine itself is narrating.

Sometimes I get sleepy READING a book. She must have been recording the audio in the library reference section….shhhhh!
Seriously, that’s one fine machine. The testament to the capability of the machine is that most of us will endure the video just to see it in action.
