Read More In-Person

Read More

How it Works:
-turn in your phone, get a snack and beverage of your choice

-find a quiet place to read, undistracted by notifications and technology

-after an hour (or more, if you want it) turn in your empty bottle or can to get your phone back!

 

Inspired by The Book Hive’s Page Against the Machine (Norwich, ENG) and De Stiil Bookseller’s Page Break’s (Montreal, CA) quiet reading hours, AU Libraries’ READ MORE is your chance to disconnect and dive into uninterrupted reading.

Considering the pace of modern life and the anxiety-inducing news we’re all experiencing on a day-to-day basis, taking a quiet moment to stop, slow down, and focus on one thing isn’t just good for well-being— it’s actually quite a rebellious act.
—The Book Hive, from Page Against the Machine.
