đź’¨ Abstract

In D.C.'s Western Market, a unique vending machine called LitBox, created by Lauren Woods, sells books exclusively by local authors. Inspired by her family's monthly reading series, Woods aimed to support both established and lesser-known writers. After securing initial funding through a grant and a successful Kickstarter campaign, LitBox now offers books ranging from $9 to $28.
