Thornleigh laneway library

Thornleigh laneway library A local laneway library encouraging people to share, donate and enjoy books for kids and adults.

18/07/2024

Keen eyes may have noticed that the property the little laneway library is on has recently sold.

We had planned to take the library with us BUT the new family are happy to keep it, so everyone can keep enjoying it - we will hand the FB page over to them in September.

Thanks for all the enthusiasm and all the little local librarians who restack books for me when it gets messy 📕 ❤️

Do you regularly take, give and share books via the Street Library network, but are not a Street Librarian yourself?

Martyn Lyons, from the University of New South Wales, is compiling a research paper on the use of Street Libraries and is looking to conduct short, in-person interviews with regular borrowers within the Sydney Metropolitan area.

Come on people! Whoever dumped two large boxes of 1983 world encyclopedias in front of the library with no cover, please come and collect them and dispose of them elsewhere. The fact that you a) expect someone wants them and b) expect me to then recycle them or move them out of the weather is incredibly unfair

Lots of new books stocked in the library today ❤️

📚 'Street Libraries are a symbol of trust and hope – a tiny vestibule of literary happiness.'

There are few things in life lovelier than curling up with a good book, and street libraries are an open invitation to share this joy of reading with your community. When people donate a book and borrow a book, they create a fulfiling cycle of generosity that allows them to gift what they love to those around them.

Street Library Australia aims to motivate people to engage with their community in a positive and easy way. A beautiful mission indeed 🧡
