I have been building several mini libraries to setup around my neighborhood. I originally built 4 and installed them about a month or so.
They were well received by the community so much that people were begging for more. So I managed to raise $300 and get some material donated. And I built 3 more which I installed today. I also managed to build a bench for one of them and plan to make more.
I have future plans to build several more as long as these first 7 are taken care of and the financing is there.
Many people stepped up to help by donating materials. I was given 4x4's, shingles, paint, money to buy materials, help painting, help building, and help installing them by various groups and people in the community.
The idea was to make this a community project and I think it has achieved that. So thank you to everyone who helped create them and to the rest for watching over them while in use!

Great idea!
I love read and this kind of initiatives show that there are interest near you.
Maybe I'll try replicate this on my town and, who knows... Maybe we could start something interesting.
Again, great idea and keep the good work.
