The Underground Library


The Underground Library from Keri Tan on Vimeo. A community project based on a research campaign by students at Miami Ad School that aims to solve the dwindling numbers of visitors to New York’s free public libraries. Interactive virtual bookshelves allow commuters to choose the opening chapter of a free digital book to read on their smartphone while on the subway. On leaving the subway, a map appears on their handset, directing them to the nearest public library so they are able to pick up a copy of the book and finish their book.
