The Biblioteko Group was founded in 2004 by five artists sharing an interest in artist’s books. ‘Biblioteko’ is the word for library in Esperanto. 

The group wishes to increase awareness of the art of the artist’s book by staging exhibitions, publishing printed works and maintaining an Internet site (www.biblioteko.net). 

The Biblioteko Group has organized exhibitions in both libraries and galleries around Finland and published two Biblioteko books (2005 and 2007). They present works by the group members as both artist’s books and as an art form. The books include texts both in Finnish and English.
