"The collective’s mission is to combine artistic production, political activism and community organization.” Its main activity is an annual tour, across Quebec, Canada and the United States, of an exhibition of artists’ books, zines and independent publications in a 50s era Airstream trailer. Various book-making workshops are also offered for free. Each year, a jury selected by the collective choses the books for the collection. The aim of the collective is to distribute alternative documentation and to encourage the creation of networks in the arts and in independent media. Former Bookmobile collections are kept in the Artexte documentation centre in Montreal, where they are accessible to the public. Bookmobile tours were suspended in 2006 for restructuring. Photos of the project can be seen at http://grrrlzines.net/fotos/bookmobile.htm and the archives accessed at http://artexte.ca/coll-mobilivre/mobilivrelinks.htm. Address in the United States: c/o Space 1026, 1026 Arch Street, Philadelphia PA 19107. Email: renseignements@mobilivre.org.
