Project description
The bootleg library is a particular, situated social infrastructure. It operates from the understanding that the library is a collection; a collection of the texts contained within it, and the readers collected around them. There is a reciprocal, self-reflexive relationship between the texts and the readers. A bootleg is a homage, an unauthorised copy of a source publication; and bootlegging a strategy by which texts acquire diversity, resisting singularity and representing readers.
