This is an operation that allows readers to "playing" with books . It is an American computer scientist of 37 years, Ron Hornbaker, who was in 2000, invented the concept. The approach consists to "liberate" books, leaving them in clear evidence in various public places so that readers find them, read them and have them move back by handing them into the circuit. It is estimated that there are every day around the world 500 new readers begin to practice the game nearly 200,000 players each year!
On the occasion of the exhibition "Books in the city which took place in July 2006, local publishers and authors had already launched such an operation. The experiment is now repeated on a larger scale.

The Pass books does not in circulation books abandoned or lost, it does not build up a personal library at little cost. The goal is really establish a network of readers, players sharing books and reading emotions.
After being mothballed for nearly two years, the operation has been relaunched from 10 March 2009, with the hope that it can be continued throughout 2009 and beyond.
What books?
To power the game, its organizers have a stock of 300 books given by publishers, authors, and some individuals. The public will be asked again to replenish the fund, since the idea is good just to give a book that we loved and we want to share with other "reader-traffickers.
Where can I find books?
Everything is centralized at the Maison du Livre. From there, the books circulate elsewhere in the city to other municipalities and even across the country.
