The Future Library is an unusual project begun by artist Katie Paterson: a forest planted in Norway will supply paper for a special anthology of books to be printed 100 years from now. Every year between now and then, one artist will contribute a text; the writings will be held in trust, unpublished, until 2144. Margaret Atwood has agreed to be the first artist; this article features an interview with Atwood about the Library and her project.
