Literature versus Traffic by Spanish art collective Luzinterruptus.
An installation of 10,000 LED-lit books, to Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia for The Light In Winter festival.
The books, recently retired from area public libraries, were given a second life as a glowing river that flowed through the square and into a nearby street. On the final day of the installation, onlookers were invited to take the books home.

The Book Igloo by Miler Lagos
Using a couple hundred books and the amazing powers of gravity, Miler created this compact book dome which somehow, magically I think, supports itself. Are you a wizard?

Home is a recent sculptural installation by Colombian artist Miler Lagos. The piece was constructed at MagnanMetz Gallery late last year using carefully stacked books to create a compact dome that is entirely self-supporting. (via chris moore, thanks megan)
