France, day 1: big library and it's tiny sibling.

Village library and next to it a tiny free library.

3 Systems That Can Help Your Neighborhood

1️⃣ Tiny Library
While real libraries are vitally important, they are not always in an available distance to communities. That’s where the tiny libraries come in: they put books directly into communities.

They work on the honor code, so there is no fear of fees, and people can add new books if they wish.

Due to recent events, I've resumed my project of disposing of books from my shelves. My guiding principal remains do I really want to read this more than any other new book?

One I discovered in my haphazard curated collection was Daughter of Darkness by Steven Spruill. According to #librarything I hadn't read this one ever.

Pretty corny in places, but it kept my attention and the fact that it was sequel to a book I also haven't read didn't bother me. Destined for my neighborhood's #TinyLibrary

I have found the local #tinyLibrary

I have also discovered I may be a katamari, but just for books.

It's a cold journey to the local tiny library this week.

#TinyLibrary

A small wooden box with a slanted roof on a post is filled with books which can be seen through a window in the front door. The roof is heavy with snow. The white box, the snowy ground and the mottled cloudy blue and white sky contrast against the dark backdrop of the wooden fence.

This #littlefreelibrary had a very noisy #librarian. I was always taught you should be quiet in a library. I guess it being #caturday she’s allowed.

There is a colourful tiny library on a fence. The roof is red, the sides are yellow and the door is pink. Inside are books. The door is open. Next to that is a calico cat with her mouth open meowing the neighbourhood awake.

@Tdorey @lauraritchie we have a right across the street. (Converted birdhouse) Love it! I am always taking books and giving back books. It’s now part of the fabric of our neighborhood.

@dogtrax As I was debating whether to buy this one I suddenly remembered ordering Orbiting the Giant Hairball (not yet received) after it was recommended by Laura.

Wait! Now I think I need a tiny library (like the one I saw two streets up) in the front yard filled only with Mastodon-inspired books.

But now I want to buy it from a small bookseller (not Amazon). I don't even know where to start to attempt such a thing any more.
