The Night Librarians,
The Night Library

In the future the world is inhospitable to organic life. Our synthetic descendants are still struggling with the apathy that helped create our climate crisis. Can humankind awaken to the reality that we have created? Hennepin County Library and Saint Paul Public Library staff and artists explore the role of information and the library in society through an interactive collaborative narrative with puzzles, games, and humor.
