Ms Paige Turner launches #cringefest
Tasman reads his diary at #cringefest -someone punches a horse!
Miss Orange, our freshly squeezed newest Recyclibrarian, at today’s MoMa market - do come down and meet her!
Last MoMa Recyclibrary this Saturday - bring your teen (or post-teen) angsty scribblings!
Friends! Book lovers! Reformed scrawlers of terrible, furtive poetry and anguished paper-bound soliloquies!
After several attempts at the MoMa, where we have suffered debilitating heat, destructive winds, and demotivating chilliness, the weather looks suspiciously fine for our last MoMa Recyclibrary this Saturday.
Come along and swap some books, maybe read some of your old diaries at #cringefest - or if you’d prefer, someone else’s!
Looking forward to seeing you in the hopefully gentle Saturday sun,
Best bookish regards,
The Recyclibrarians
Rain, hail, and hopefully shine, Recyclibrary this Saturday at MoMa!
Writers! Readers! Extroverts!
Tomorrow’s Recyclibrary at MoMa will give you the chance to speak to the people, reading any piece of text you fancy - self-composed, begged, borrowed or stolen!
And of course, there will be the usual selection of fine books through which to browse.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
The Recyclibrarians
Shirley, our first gifter of books at last week’s MoMa Recyclibrary - woot!
Recyclibrary at MoMa tomorrow! Saturday 17th March
It’s confirmed!
Recyclibrary tomorrow at MoMa, headed by the very organized Ms. Dusty Provenance!
Hope to see you all there!
Best regards,
The Recyclibrarians
Beware the ides of March! Be aware of the Recyclibraries of March!
Art lovers! Love artists! Book artists!
After several glasses of home made lemonade, several gallons of iced tea, and a lot of frenzied fanning, the Recyclibrarians are ready, once again, to take on the hopefully slightly less sweltering challenge of the MoMa rooftop markets!
A selection of books and other printed material desirous of a new home will be on-site at MoMa on Saturday 24th March. Who knows, we may even make it there this Saturday…stay tuned for futher updates!
Please do come and visit us and say hello. Feel free to bring your own cuppa of choice, and perhaps join us in a brisk game of scrabble!
Best arty regards,
The Recyclibrarians

Thanks to everyone who came along and chatted with us at last Saturday’s Recyclibrary at MoMa!
Despite the ludicrous heat, Herr von Schmarrn (pictured), Paige Turner and I had a lovely time - the rosewater and mint ice cream & the fabulous pear cider helped immeasurably!
Special thanks to Margie at Tasmanian Landcare Association for lending us their new-fangled lamination machine to make weather-proof signs - they do good things! Check them out! http://www.taslandcare.org.au/
Best bookish regards,
Miss Wimple and the Recyclibrarians
Paige Turner and Herr von Schmarrn hold down the windy Recyclibrary fort at MoMa - methinks more icecream will be required!
Norah from London has just found a copy of her friend Sue Gee’s book!
We are at MoMa! Hoping to see you all and eat lots of ice cream!
Taking it to the streets. And the nooks. And especially the crannies.
Here at the Recyclibrary, plans are afoot for the installation of mini-Recyclibraries at strategic locales, so you can access them to browse and donate 24-7.
Where would you like to see mini-Recyclibraries? Let us know here on the website, or email us - recyclibrarians@gmail.com.
In the meantime, we love this project in Brooklyn - check it!

Step right up for a Recyclibrary this Saturday at MoMa !
Friends! Patrons! Mildly hungover lovers of the arts!
Here at the Recyclibrary, we don’t know much about art, but we do know what we like.
Right now, we are liking the fact that the next Recyclibrary will be popping up like a strangely literate fungus this Saturday 25th February at MoMa - the roof top market at the Museum of Old and New Art!
Well-loved Recyclibrarian Paige Turner will be joined by Herr von Schmarrn, our new Recyclibrarian for international literature, fresh off the plane from the land of sausages and beer. They will be pleased to present you with our latest literary smorgasbord, and will be stamping out books from around 12.30pm onwards.
We have a good selection of new books which were kindly donated by many of you at the Valentine’s Recyclibrary - do feel free to bring any spare literary morsels you have to donate to us this coming Saturday. Cups of tea, biscuits, exotic icecreams and steins of hefe-weizen also graciously accepted.
Tell your friends - this Saturday, the books are on the roof of MONA, and on us!
Artlessly yours,
The Recyclibrarians

Thanks for a lovely Valentine’s Day Recyclibrary - we went quite weak at the knees!
Friends! Patrons! Satiated lovers of all things pink and heart shaped!
Thank you so much for your love at our Valentine’s Recyclibrary - we had a gorgeous time, eating biscuits, drinking tea and helping rehome a broad selection of lovable, pre-loved books. We were also heartened by the number of donations we received on the day - our love goes out to all you generous souls who came down and shared the day with us!
Stay tuned for further updates as to our next Recyclibrary event!
In bookish love,
The Recyclibrarians
