Oh, No! The Library’s Closed
Libraries as Sites of Unconditional Care (?)
The Bedford Public Library is one of 59 Public Libraries in Brooklyn. It is located on the edge of Bed-Stuy in Franklin Avenue. In an attempt to consider the Bedford Branch in relationship with its physical location in the neighborhood, a resilient community emerged.
On Saturday the 9th, and Wednesday the 13th of November 2019, the Bedfrod Public Library was closed due to a heat outbreak. Based on these observations, the work was an attempt to map the different needs of the members of this community in reaction to the closing of the library.
This childrens book is a provocation designed to represent the different assets within a community.
