An Unusual Library Finds a New Home

This article from the NY Times discusses the Read/Write Library, Chicago’s largest depository of grass-roots printed materials.  “Formerly known as the Chicago Underground Library, Read/Write rejects the selectivity of traditional libraries and collects “anything from university press to handmade artists’ books to zines made by 13-year-olds,” Ms. Taylor said. “We want to give people a much broader sense of who’s out there.”

Very Against the Grain!
