How do we guarantee preservation and access to published material? How do we construct libraries? What are the different modes of experience that a library can offer? Stuart Bailey, member of collaborative group and event space Dexter Sinister, will lead two public workshops on the nature of the library and its function as an archive, a social space and a pedagogical tool, taking at a starting point 'The Serving Library', a project currently being developed by Dexter Sinister. The idea of 'The Serving Library', a place where both books and alcohol are available, functions as a roundabout way to reflect on the way in which printed and unprinted material can be articulated and preserved within a public place that is both educational and recreational. Participation is open to the public with prior registration.
