 We're delighted to let you know that the [[https://www.zotero.org/groups/foam_library/items|digital catalogue of our physical library]] is now online. Alkan has been cataloguing the publications and sorting them on the shelves, so it is now much easier to find what you're looking for in our humble but exciting collection of more than thousand books, magazines, grey literature and other ephemera informing and emerging from FoAM's activities. From 2014 we're planning to hold Open Library Days and Salons, giving not just our audiences but also ourselves a chance to enjoy reading and sharing our love of books and the written word. If you're interested to peruse the library, email us at bxl@fo.am for an appointment. We're delighted to let you know that the [[https://www.zotero.org/groups/foam_library/items|digital catalogue of our physical library]] is now online.

-Soon after the library was catalogued, one of our families in residence used it in the most creative manner. [[http://fo.am/family-microresidency-declerck/|Lies Declerck and her two-year-old son Adriaan]] spent a week at FoAM cooking from recipes found in FoAM's food-related books. This was one of the most unique and generous residencies we have ever experienced. Lies experimented with the bleeding edge between work and life, art and housework and took care of FoAM and our guests for a week. In exchange we looked after Adi and involved both of them in the daily life of the lab.+Soon after the library was catalogued, one of our families in residence used it in the most creative manner.
