I came across this, and thought it was pretty awesome: portable libraries!  I’ve always been a huge fan of books, and believe in the power they have to transform the lives of the people that read them.

The Uni Project “is a nonprofit committed to increasing access to books and learning opportunities through pop-up, open-air reading rooms.”

It’s mostly in New York City, but if you want to set up your own portable library they send you a reading room kit, which is so cool!

The Uni Project provides many ways to get involved: you can donate books, make a donation to help support a new or existing reading room, provide your time by volunteering as a librarian, or set up your own reading room in your local neighborhood!
