World Bank Infoshop, Development bookstore in Washington DC, United States
The World Bank Infoshop occupied a retail space at 701 18th Street Northwest, offering publications about economics, regional issues, poverty, and environmental topics.
Established in 2000 through the combination of World Bank's bookstore and public information center, the venue operated until its closure in February 2017.
The store hosted regular events with international authors and provided a platform for discussions about global development, economics, and social issues.
Students, government employees, and NGO workers received discounts on purchases, while all World Bank publications became available for free digital download.
In 2006, the Infoshop installed the beta version of the Espresso Book Machine, introducing on-demand printing technology to Washington DC readers.
