About the bootleg library

The bootleg library is a physical/digital/social collection of unauthorised republished texts. The digital bootleg library is a study resource for XPUB staff and students. Self-hosted on a Raspberry Pi, the library runs on the open-source software calibre-web, which allows multiple file formats to be stored under the one catalogue listing.

The collection is mostly media and art theory, feminism(s), technical manuals and literature, but is inclusive of other interests.
