- In October 2018, Olthof traveled through the US, visiting more than fifteen libraries with the aim of gaining inspiration for the Dutch context. She spoke to various initiators and artists and learned so much about how libraries have curators who organize artist-in-residencies, making art part of the public function. Art and citizenship are interwoven in these 'true public spaces' where the arts and literature have social functions.

- In many countries the role of public libraries is changing. In Indonesia there has never been a substantial public library system. Self-organized libraries have filled some of these gaps. In what significant political moment(s) did they arise? What impact do libraries have on local communities? Can a library function as a public safe space that is open to different voices? Which tactics are deployed by self-organized libraries to encourage uncensored and unrestricted access to information?
