Images Download all photos of the mini libraries (ZIP 59 MB) Mini libriaries (9 photos) Captions Swedes are borrowing fewer books are more libraries are being closed down. As a reaction to this, 100 mini-libraries have been opened across the country. This initiative by Studieförbundet NBV (Sweden's oldest study association) aims to make literature available to more people – from Abisko in the north to Smygehuk in the south, 24 hours a day.
Most of the mini-libraries are placed in connection with electrical cabinets to enrich street environments, a way of combining art with learning.
Some of the more unique mini-libraries are so-called Heros – mini-libraries that attract extra attention. These interpret and pay homage to various buildings and places in Sweden. Can you see which ones it is?
Readers who take a book are encouraged to underline a sentence, paragraph or perhaps just a word that stuck with them. And then leave a note about what that made the reader feel. In this way, different people meet thoughts and feelings through the books.
