It's not an official county library but it works great for the townfolk. They are eternally grateful for all the books I pass on to them. They'll have a great romance section by the time I get done with them! lolTracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05320961506471746567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-42270663629042630582008-10-21T08:49:00.000-04:002008-10-21T08:49:00.000-04:00What a great idea!

A few years ago, when my kids outgrew their Goosebumps and other books, I took a huge box to them and they loved it. They have shelves of books in the play areas and they have a Pink Lady that takes around a library cart to the kids rooms who are unable to walk down the hall to the play areas, everyday so the kids check them out and return them just like a library.<BR/>Our city library wouldn't take the books because they were paperback, so I almost threw them out.
