Smallest library in the world can hold only one person

If you think a good library is a huge, book-filled library, you may need to review its concepts a bit. The smallest library in the world, located in New York, can prove that functionality and charm have nothing to do with size, after all, there are libraries out there that are full of dusty collections and no readers.

The idea of ​​the super small structure in New York is to increase turnover, since the place is ideal for the reader to choose a book, lend it and leave. According to the Daily Mail portal, the small yellow structure houses 40 books and allows only one reader at a time.

The mini library was designed by a team of architects who used recyclable materials to build the structure that keeps the books well protected inside. Among the materials used are water tanks made of plastic and wood. The little library has holes that allow the reader to check the books outside.

Installed in May, the library has attracted a good number of readers and curious. The interior of the structure has the following simple instruction: "Take a book, return a book." The idea, which combines literature and sustainability, already exists in other US cities, totaling 5, 000 mini libraries in that country alone. What do you think of this initiative?
