Project: The Publik Library



The Publik Library is a creative accessibility project initiated by School, Educated Guess, and research + development.

Leveraging Google Drive, our team created ‘The Stacks’ in order to publicly archive digital items recommended by working creatives for anyone to dig through and find inspiration.

Those things (books, films, videos, art, lectures, places, and people) are organized into cards bearing the names of creatives who’ve filled them. The goal is to create an ever-evolving repository of inputs and inspirations that can offer an ever-growing source of insights for young creatives and lifelong students.

Quarterly, we host a ‘Book Fair’ where selected contributors to ‘The Stacks’ talk about the inputs and inspirations that have had a significant impact on their lives and careers.
