The Palazzo Ducale Fondazione per la Cultura will give anyone who saves at least one kilogram of books a special bookmark entitling them to a significant discount on the purchase of a ticket to the exhibition 'Moby Dick, the whale. History of a myth from antiquity to contemporary art', which will be open to visitors from 12 October 2025 to 15 February 2026 at the Doge's Apartment and Chapel. During this edition, WAMI will also distribute free water and for each bottle, it will guarantee 100 litres of drinking water to a community that does not have access to it anywhere in the world.

HOW DOES LIBROKILO WORK?
Choose the books you want and weigh them on our scales: 1 kg equals €10 regardless of the type or quantity of books. The minimum purchase is 1 kg. Beyond that, we also count the decimals — so, for example, if your stack weighs 1.3 kg, you’ll pay €13.
IS ENTRY FREE?
Yes, entry is free, but registration is required.
CAN I BRING MY USED BOOKS?
Yes! During the event you can bring your books in excellent condition, up to a maximum of 5 kg. We do not accept dictionaries, encyclopedias, newspaper inserts, magazines, or loose issues.
The final selection will be at Librokilo’s discretion. For every kilo of books you bring, you will receive a €2 token that can be used only during the ongoing event
HOW CAN I PAY?
You can pay in cash, by credit or debit card, and via Satispay.
DO YOU PROVIDE BAGS OR TOTE BAGS?
To make an ecological and sustainable choice, we aim to limit disposable consumption as much as possible. That’s why we ask you to bring your own cloth bags, trolleys, or recycled bags from home.
