This event is free; no tickets are required.

Harvard Book Store is pleased to host an evening in honor of the many authors who have published books on Paige, our in-store bookmaking machine. The evening will include remarks by MISSY CARTER (Living Lines), DARREN CORMIER (A Little Soul - 140 Twitterstories), and BARRY GOLDSTEIN (translator of The Yiddish Hobbit), as well as demonstrations of the book machine in action, a book signing, and light refreshments.

Thanks to the technology of our Espresso Book Machine, Harvard Book Store can not only print copies of millions of out-of-print and hard-to-find titles, but also can give authors the chance to have their work published for the first time or to bring their out-of-print work back into print. Since its launch back in 2009, Paige M. Gutenborg has allowed local authors to publish collections of poetry, novels, memoirs, local histories, and many other genres.

Unable to attend a Harvard Book Store author event? You can still pre-order a signed book by one of our visiting authors.

While we can't guarantee fulfillment of a signed book pre-order, our authors are almost always able to sign extra books to fulfill such orders.

Ordering a signed book on harvardsquarebookstore.com:

  • Add the book to your shopping cart and then click Checkout.
  • Specify in Order Comments that you want a signed copy of the book.
  • Please note: online orders for signed copies must be placed at least one business day before the event. If you are ordering the day of, please call us instead.

Ordering a signed book by phone:

  • Call us at (617) 661-1515 and one of our booksellers will take your order. Specify you'd like a signed copy.
  • If you are requesting a personalized inscription and/or requesting your book be shipped, we'll need to take down credit card information. If you are planning to pick up the signed book in the store, you can pay on pick-up.

FAQ:

Can I request a personalized inscription?
We are happy to take requests for the author to sign your book to a specific person, but we can't guarantee it. If you do get a personalized inscription, the book will be non-returnable. We will require credit card information when you place the order.

Do signed books cost more?
There is no extra fee for a signed book!

Do I have to pick it up in the store, or can you deliver my signed book?
As with all web or phone orders, we can hold your book for in-store pickup, or ship it anywhere in the country.

I am planning to attend an author event. Do I need to pre-order a book?
No need. We'll be selling books at the event, and nearly all of our events include a signing at the end of the talk.
