Over 7 days in Leeds Central Library, Quarantine artist Kate Daley hand makes a book containing a work of collective fiction based on conversations with people in the library.

The finished book enters the library’s collection for future readers.

A beautiful object, carefully made, the book is an offering to the people who shaped it, an alternative portrait of the library and the knowledge it holds.
