The new facade of the Pioneer Bookstore in Provo, Utah is all about the books.
In less than a week a group of decorative artists transformed the dreary storefront into a welcoming entrance covered in books.
As to where the impetus for such a biblio-facade came from, look no further than the Kansas City Library which then led to one in the Ukraine.

The used bookstore in the main branch of the local public library! i was so excited to learn this existed because the next closest ones are over an hour away. I need to make sure I have time to actually go in on my next visit!
and you can’t see it from this angle, but the the checkout/desk is made out of stacked books!
When I discovered the used bookstore section of my local library I think I actually freaked out. I mean who wouldn’t when it comes to $1 hardbacks and $0.50 paperbacks!

I albsolutely love this photos, love the idea. I hope people will enjoy this bookstore, I know I would if I was lieving in the area.
Me: *goes to bookstore to find pretty books and take pictures of them*
Also me: *is too poor to buy said books*
You have to create your own space which has a lot of silence in it and a lot of books.
