Yale students design a temporary library for protesters at Beinecke Plaza, a longtime hub for activists
Last week, Yalies installed a pop-up library in Beinecke Plaza, otherwise known as Hewitt Quadrangle, for a protest called “Books Not Bombs.” The pop-up featured multiple bookshelves stocked with anti-colonial literature arranged in a manner that followed the plaza’s curvature. Handwritten banners adorned the shelves with messages like “ALL WALLS WILL FALL.” The intervention was designed to support students and faculty on strike for Palestine
