‘Books are a uniquely portable magic.’ – Stephen King

The Reading Room is an immersive travelling library experience, where stories dance on pages, magnificently illuminated.

Innovative performance-triggered technologies transport readers of all ages and abilities to the distant worlds found within books. A standalone pavilion warmly embraces local visitors as it travels through cities and towns, across countries and hemispheres.

Intrepid, flexible, inviting and beautiful – the Reading Room reacquaints visitors with the love of reading, and with the magic of local libraries.
