The Future Library project (Norwegian: ''Framtidsbiblioteket'') is a public artwork that aims to collect one original story by a popular writer every year until 2114, and to share them to the world only then. The project was conceived by Katie Paterson during the summer of 2014. It is managed by the Future Library Trust and supported by the City of Oslo, Norway. It was produced for the (Slow Space ) public art program and commissioned by (Bjørvika ), Oslo's former container port and its development corporation. The manuscripts will be held in a specially designed room at the new Deichman Library (Oslo Public Library) currently under construction in Bjørvika, Oslo. The collected works will be on display but the manuscripts will not be available for reading. The Future Library Trust's committee of trustees will make a new selection annually based on the criteria "outstanding contributions to literature or poetry, and for their work's ability to capture the imagination of this and future generations." One thousand trees were planted in the Nordmarka forest which will be used to print 1,000 copies of the limited-edition anthology. Certificates sold for £625 will entitle the holder to the full anthology. Margaret Atwood was the first contributor to this project, officially handing over the manuscript for ''Scribbler Moon'' in May 2015. David Mitchell will be the second contributor; he is currently working on his manuscript.〔Alison Flood, (Into the woods: Margaret Atwood reveals her Future Library book, Scribbler Moon ), The Guardian, 27 May 2015.〕 == References == 2. http://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/may/27/margaret-atwood-scribbler-moon-future-library-norway-katie-paterson 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Future Library project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
