As we prepare the uni*rural* presence in Murci (Southern Tuscany) for the Piccola Fiera del libro/Buchmesse (March 29, 2026), we have started to select and tidy up (er…tidying up is maybe an overstatement) a few items to bring. At the fair the the pibinko.org network will be represented by Jack O’Malley and Wolfgang Scheibe aka Tattistampa. They will be there both with their book lover/authoring hats and with their entertainer hats.

To tune in with the event, we also considered the idea of preparing some graphic design combining the “Jug” paradigm, which we started to use in 2018 for music (http://www.jugbandcm.it), and then extended to other initiatives (such as “trading” in 2023 our film festival, ecc). So: here we are with the “Jug Library dalle Colline Metallifere“…our network’s “distributed library”).

To start with, this is drawing mostly from the “reading” section of Stuff-o-teque (https://www.pibinko.org/stuff-o-teque/), but we are planning also to embed contributions from other colleagues…stay tuned.

If you are interested to share items with the JLCM (this does not mean that you have to physically give them to us, but at least we need to add them to our catalog)…books, magazines, maps, and other stuff which involves reading, please write to segreteria@unirural.org or 3317539228.
