Here's a bit of news on the library box: I'm surprised at how the movement of books changes over time through the box. For a period earlier this fall the box was stagnant and it seemed as though we had little traffic. There are books friends have passed on a couple boxes of kids books which act as a reservoir of book supply through the droughts. Then all of a sudden:
This morning was a shazam moment when I dropped by the box. A visitor or visitors had dropped off some brand new board books on the bottom shelf and a set of adult fiction as well. The box is brimming with periodicals (New Yorker, The Sun & National Geo), a plethora of kids books and a robust set of adult reading.
Thanks to all you folks who keep the box alive.
