A book vending machine, called the Literary Launcher, was unveiled today by the Christian County Literacy Council and Atmos Energy, according to a report by The Eagle Post.
The machine is housed at Visit Hopkinsville in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.
“We want our students to be prolific readers, be people who enjoy reading, knowing that reading is a path to their success whatever it is,” Literacy Council Executive Director Francene Gilmer told the news outlet.
The vending machine, unded by Atmos Energy, will be stocked with books that students can earn by reading. To receive a book, students must read two books in one week and have their parents bring them to Visit Hopkinsville.
