summary: Varia Library and Rotterdam Electronics Depot Open day featuring The Bootleg Library


**Need books? Need zines? Need electronic parts?**

Starting in January 2020, Varia will have their doors open every last Sunday of the month.

Come and make yourself comfortable, read the books you never find time to read, browse/exchange/acquire parts from our electronics depot or use the quietness of the day to repair things that need fixing.

On Sunday the 26th of January, Varia has a special guest: Simon Browne will be introducing the “bootleg library”, which is a shared digital and physical library of bootlegged texts. 

```
 bootleg library sessions
 
 what to bring?
         a computer and some of your favourite ebooks 
         (PDF, EPUB, whatever)
 
 what will we do?
         we’ll have an introduction to the “bootleg library”, 
         which is a shared digital and physical library of 
         bootlegged texts. let’s make user accounts, download 
         and upload some texts, talk about what we’re reading 
         and how we like to organise our bookshelves, and 
         together discuss ways the library can develop.
```

Tea and coffee will be bountiful.
This event is open to all and the entrance is free.
