This week over at @archaeobookclub we're sharing our favourite or most influential book / reading experiences. . For me, I've always loved the idea of mini street libraries such as this one in a town near us. It reminds me of the mobile library that used to visit the village that I lived in for a few years when I was younger, and which I always thought was the coolest thing. I always wanted to set up my own little street library, but because we moved around so much and when I had my own place it was always rented, it was never possible. So you can imagine that one of my main goals when we bought our new house was to install one! . There's a great second-hand shop in the bigger town close to us, and one day while browsing I saw this very sweet little painted closet top. It was too perfect to resist! Since we installed it last summer it's done very well, and I can see it from my office so it's always fun to spot people walking past, doing a little double-take, and then perusing for a while before ambling happily away with a new book under their arm. It also gets regularly restocked, so it's working really well! . Have you ever used one of these street libraries? . #WorldBookWeek #BookLover #reading #books #StreetLibrary #NeighbourhoodLibrary #library #bookstagram #einbeck https://www.instagram.com/p/CpPdq7dq9yI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
