FREE BOOKS Utility Box

While you're waiting for the street lights to come on, why not grab a book?

Perhaps an old medicine cabinet?

There is no parking at all on the east side of the street.

South of the stuccoed walls of Lincoln Elementary attached to a No Parking sign is a white unassuming box. If it weren't for the clear black label of "FREE BOOKS", one might think the box is off limits to all but city personnel. Open the box, however, and you will see that, indeed, the box contains no wiring; rather, it contains free books.

Book examples:

From Stress to Strength by Robert Eliot
1001 Albums to Hear Before You Die by Robert Dimery
Large Print Word Hunt by Anonymous
