The smallest library in the world is located in a phone booth

Due to the popularity of mobile communications - British red telephone booths are gradually fading into history. However, they are not discarded to the dustbin. Telecommunications operator British Telecom sells them to everyone, and savvy Brits turn them in showers, closets, art installations.

Thus, residents of a small British town of Westbury-sub-Mendip, for a nominal fee 1 pound, bought a box and made her the smallest library in the world outdoors, working 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And even at night inside lit lighting, for fans to read at night.

Locals installed in a rack, on which were placed the books on various subjects, as well as CDs and DVD. In the catalog of the library of more than 100 items, from culinary books and periodicals, to classics and bestsellers.

You will not see the librarian here, everything is calculated solely on the consciousness of readers. People fill up the shelves of books brought from home, and taking something to read - always return to the place.

Despite the fact that in the city live only about 800 people, the library is very popular, and sometimes to take the book, it is necessary to defend the place.
