Waldorf Books is excited to announce it will be offering a new print-on-demand publishing service. The company has created a database of all the major and minor book titles in the world and developed a program that can access electronic versions of these books. If a customer is unable to find a book in paperback or hardcover in the store, he can go to the Print-On-Demand kiosk and with the push of a button print a copy of the book without ever leaving the store! This new technology has a couple of advantages: customers can choose from a more extensive selection of books, and the final product is cheaper. The service is especially useful for individuals who are most interested in less popular titles by relatively unknown authors. The print-on-demand service will be available at all Waldorf Books stores starting this September.

Dear Jenny,
It's been a time since I last saw you. A lot has happened since then. I got a new job working at a toy company. It's nice and big. If you have time, you should come visit me soon. I have a vacation next month, so you could visit me then. Call me soon!

Love,
Sarah

Dear Sarah,
It was great to get your letter. My classes are going well, and I got an A in every subject this semester. The winter vacation starts next month. I have to find a part-time job, so I won't have much free time. Maybe I will have more time during the summer vacation to visit you. I'll call you next week.
Take care,

Jenny
