Chicago book bike "Bibliotreka" stolen

A thief in Logan Square didn’t just steal a bike over the weekend, he or she took a whole library.

The “Bibliotreka,” a custom tricycle custom built to carry a collection of literary works from Humboldt Park’s Read/Write Library, was stolen sometime in the late hours of Saturday night and Sunday morning. Nell Taylor, the executive director of the non-profit that collects all kinds of Chicago stories, small-publications, poetry and zines, said the organization is simply seeking a safe return of its library on wheels.
