Forest Books: A Public Book Exchange Program

Fellow travel and book lover, Rhonda Carrier, shared this on Facebook and it is so cool that I just need to share it on as well! In Berlin, a program called Forest Books — tree trunks have been installed in public places and free books are in the plastic enclosures for residents to swap out and exchange. To see some more photos from this awesome program, check out the inhabit website.

    that is an excellent idea. We have a book exchange shelf in our office that gets lots of use.

  2. That is so awesome!! I’ve been seeing more pictures of these on Facebook etc (different ideas for a book exchange shelf) so cute! 

  3. This is such a great idea! I’d love to see this implemented in more places. I like the idea of an office book exchange self, too.
