Mobilivre

The collective consists of a fluctuating group of dedicated volunteers, coordinators, jury organizers, and tour guides.

Although the project is based primarily in Montreal, QC, and Philadelphia, PA, collective members reside in various cities throughout North America.

The MOBILIVRE-BOOKMOBILE project explores the long-held tradition of bookmobiles as traveling libraries in order to promote the distribution of information.

Since 2000, the project has been selectively collecting and organizing artist's books (that range from handmade and one-of-a-kind pieces, to zines, photocopied works, and other independent publications) on an annual basis.

Members of the collective present these works to the public in a series of traveling exhibitions that are held throughout the United States and Canada with the help of a vintage Airstream trailer.
