The Book Nook is a project of WTA with SM Aura Premier. The project is a 20 sqm public library that takes after the Book Stop Project, a pop-up public library network that explores how libraries need to evolve to engage with and attract contemporary users and promote reading in the next generation. It also hosts events where people can interact and share ideas with each other. The SM Book Nook serves as a redistribution point for old books, allowing the free sharing or transfer of ideas from one person to another.
