The Short Story Dispenser is a simple device with three illuminated buttons: 1 minute, 3 minute and 5 minute. Press one and out rolls a long strip of paper, randomly generated by the machine from its online bank of original and classic stories, poems, and even comics. The Edgartown Library is the second public library in New England to own a Short Story dispenser. It is located on the first floor at the Circulation Desk. Stop in and print a story or read a story from home.
