Take This Book: The People's Library at Occupy Wall Street by Melissa Gira Grant. "No one founded the library. The library founded itself. "- Jaime Taylor, librarian, People's Library, Occupy Wall Street This is one story of the People's Library at Occupy Wall Street, as told to me by many of the librarians behind it: how the library began, what happened after the November 15 raid on Zuccotti Park, and why they're rebuilding. Take This Book is an extended essay -- just over 10,000 words -- based on the stories of the librarians and the library's patrons.
Update: an excerpt from Take This Book was published at Rhizome Take This Book is ready to publish, and as soon as this project is fully funded, I will release the digital edition (in epub and Kindle formats) to all backers.

The Brave New World of Occupy Wall Street Posted on Nov 15, 2011 By Amy Goodman We got word just after 1 a.m. Tuesday that New York City police were raiding the Occupy Wall Street encampment. I raced down with the “Democracy Now!” News team to Zuccotti Park, renamed Liberty Square. Hundreds of riot police had already surrounded the area. The few of us members of the press who managed to get through all the police lines were sent to a designated area across the street from Zuccotti Park.
We saw a broken bookcase in one pile. As the night progressed, the irony of finding Huxley’s book grew. “Brave New World Revisited” was Huxley’s nonfiction response to the speed with which he saw modern society careening to that bleak future. One of the People’s Library volunteers, Stephen Boyer, was there as the park was raided. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s office later released a photo of a table with some books stacked on it, claiming the books had been preserved. . © 2011 Amy Goodman.

NYPD tries to. The Pirate Bay Is The World’s Most Efficient Public Library. Infopolicy – Zacqary Adam Green The way media piracy works is that one person or group purchases a work, and then shares it with millions of other people. This supposedly deprives the author or artist of those millions of people’s money. One group has acquired over 50 million media items, and makes each of them available to approximately 20 million people — which must be a tremendous hit to creative professionals’ wallets. This notorious institution is called the New York Public Library. It begs the question why every author, filmmaker, and musician isn’t up in arms about the New York Public Library’s rampant sharing, while there’s a ton of opposition to the sharing habits of BitTorrent peers who use The Pirate Bay.
Before the New York Public Library can share an item with you, you first need to schlep all the way to 5th Avenue and 42nd Street in Manhattan. The Pirate Bay, on the other hand, requires you to type in a search term, click on a download button, and wait a little while. A Polite Revolution.
