Poem Booth at IFLA WLIC 2023

Poem Booth at IFLA WLIC 2023

This week we brought Poem Booth to the 88th World Library and Information Congress (IFLA WLIC) in Rotterdam — the world's largest gathering of library and information professionals.

For this special occasion, Poem Booth created poetry in five different languages: Chinese, Arabic, Hungarian, Swahili, and Xhosa. Delegates from around the world experienced having their portrait turned into a personalized poem in their own language.

The multilingual capability of Poem Booth was a perfect match for an international congress celebrating the diversity of world libraries and the universal power of literature.
