For many, Instagram remains a place primarily to document our travels and brunch escapades, but the New York Public Library is out to elevate the medium by infusing it with some classic literature.

Today, the library’s Instagram account began posting Insta Novels, a collaboration with agency Mother in New York.

The program will bring some of literature’s most renowned tales to life via the social platform’s Stories function, allowing users to click through visuals and then read from the novels.
