Response to a Literacy Crisis
The Philippines suffers from a literacy crisis among the youth.
The Book Stop Project reimagines libraries as mobile, community-driven spaces that bring books and ideas to the people. It creates micro-libraries in high-density areas, inviting everyday persons in casual encounters of reading.

a snippet of Book Stop 1's first year
In its first year (2016), The Book Stop was able to record at least 800 to 1000 visitors a day, and at least 100 to 150 books exchanged daily. It has been a site of several cultural and knowledge sharing activities and it has connected with local partners for assistance in book donations, as site partners and as donors for new iterations. The Book Stop 01 at Intramuros indirectly benefits its residents, workers and tourist at 30,000 to 40,000 daily.

Accessible Literacy and Education
In a rapidly urbanizing Manila, The Book Stop could help revitalize reading culture by making books freely accessible in high-foot-traffic areas, promoting spontaneous reading and knowledge-sharing especially among interested locals and the youth.

Social Architecture
While promoting literacy, the project enhances the city’s limited public recreational spaces by integrating a dynamic reading environment into smaller parks and plazas: serving as a cultural hub for storytelling, poetry, art activities, and civic discussions.
