Since November 2013, the Espresso Book Machine (EBM) has empowered hundreds of Story Center customers to share their stories by printing their original work. But in the past eleven years technology has evolved and options for self-publishing have expanded. After much consideration, we have decided to retire the EBM. We encourage customers interested in printing or publishing their work to reach out to Kyndall Tiller, Story Center Publication Manager.
