A suitcase trunk, a backpack trunk and a shopping trunk have been circulating from house to house for several months. Designed and built by Bruit du Frigo, the trunks are filled with documents selected by Bruit du Frigo to form an initial collection. But the rules of the game invite local residents to drop off books of their choice when the trunk visits their home: novels, films, documentaries, cooking recipes, gardening tips, architecture books, art books, etc. Each of the three trunks forms a small piece of furniture that can be opened as a gift and set up in the home as a temporary mobile library. Each home can host one of the trunks for three weeks, so they can make a complete tour of the community in a year. Christel, Veronika and Nathalie, residents of Cobonne, have become the godmothers of these travelling trunks. They are responsible for moving the trunks from house to house, and for pointing out to the lucky owners that there is a small visitors' book for comments and suggestions. At their public inauguration, the children held a random draw to create a circulation map of the commune. The idea is that their journey will be extended to other people in the valley who would also like to take advantage of it.
