An all-ages family experience, with emphasis on engaging Young Adult and Teenage audiences, The Lost Librarian is an interactive story utilising creative technology, games, and puzzles to recount a fictional tale of three Devon Witches, based on research of the Bideford Witch Trials of 1682, which toured Devon Libraries.

Working with Lizzie Johnson (Designer, Fabricator, and Project Manager), Kyle Hirani (Robotocist and Creative Technologist), and Chat Akula (Robotocist), the installation was commissioned by Libraries Unlimited (as part of their Evolve programme with funding from Arts Council England).
