Hi all,
My husband and I are in the process of setting up a book swap/mini library in Spring Creek, where people can borrow a book, or take one in return for leaving another behind. There are 3 similar boxes running in Wairau Valley and 1 in St Arnaud that I know of, as well as many others around the country and the world.
To be able to stock it, I would love donations of any books you have that you don't want anymore. I can pick these up and store them until it is up and running, and use any left overs to fill gaps as it starts getting used.
We will have a Facebook page to follow, and I will post this once it is up and running
