Seen the New Lending Library? It’s located next to the upper bank of mailboxes. It’s the brainchild of CCA members Donna and John Inglis. As Donna explained,
“It really came about as I would find myself coming across libraries in other neighborhoods and later returning to swap a book or two. I would often meet the "host" and have a friendly chat...seems sharing book reviews is one of those easy ways to start conversation with a stranger. Eventually the light bulb went off and I thought, "We need one of these in our neighborhood". So, I set out to find one of a design that seemed congruent, invited a gaggle of our known bookworms over for a book-swap party and voila! The little library was seeded with about 200 books and it's been up and running since.”
Stop by soon, take a book and leave a book. And thank our neighbors Donna and John for this delightful addition to our neighborhood.
