Summary/Abstract: The article shows that the biggest beneficiary of possibilities opened by infrastructure of information society is not contemporary literary avant-garde (hypertexts, electronic literature etc.) but popular literature ingrained in the very centre of social communication. Authors like Dehnel and Witkowski through their media activity, writing features in newspapers, blogging, using Facebook, organizing events in public space etc. blur the line between book and media environment and create interactive, transmedia literary space. Literature goes beyond books and libraries, like previously visual arts left traditional space of museum. Texts go out of books, enter a public space, meet people, connect with other media, setting up literary database scattered throughout the culture, which can be used in a different ways.
