This tall library is on the side of The Grain Mill Cooperative facing the Holding Inclusive Park…read more Painted a light brown and trimmed with paintings of flowers and branches, this is a "Nature" Lending Library. The note inside reads, "We appreciate donations of books to this Little Nature Library, but prefer the books to be about 'Nature' only. Thanks!" That's an interesting concept and the books inside are indeed non-fiction about gardening and flowers and insects and harvesting. I did not have any books today about that, so I didn't add anything to the library. [Review 2424 of 2024 - 3880 in North Carolina - 23437 overall]

It is across the street from the elementary school which may be why there was a plethora of children's books here. A single door and inside, well stuffed with books.

Painted white with a shingle roof, the library is open to the elements and easy to see what's here. Two shelves with a few books on the top shelf and the bottom shelf had a DVD and some blown leaves. This library does not have any identifying information as to the steward and I did not see it in the Little Free Library map. Still, stop by and check it out.

An hour or two browsing the vast selection of books at McKay's is honestly one of my favorite ways…read moreto pass time. The store is massive and carries used books of every genre, as well as gently-loved puzzles, Funko characters, Squishmallows, toys, vinyl, movies, board games, CDs, video games, etc. It's a really fun place to browse and it has something for just about everyone. The store is organized pretty well considering how much inventory they have. My only complaint as a buyer is that most items are overpriced. For example, a used paperback copy of TJ Klune's House in Cerulean Sea is $17 and a lovely used puzzle I was looking at buying was $15. I would rather support McKay's than big-box stores or Amazon, but in this economy it is also hard to justify spending $5 - $10 more for a used version than I would a new one elsewhere. That being said, every now and then, I find a really good deal at McKay's. I purchased a paperback copy of Less by Andrew Sean Greer for 25 cents, which made my day. Selling books here can be slightly disheartening. I recently took in a stack of 18 books, including a popular hardcover which was being sold in the store for $17 at the time, and I only received $13 in store credit for the entire stack. I am not sure how this compares with other stores that buy used books, but in the future I will probably only sell items that I would have donated anyway so that any store credit, no matter how little, feels like a little bonus.

Do be prepared to be sold non working electronics and denied a refund for not having the box it was in. (Even with a receipt). Which made me end up buying 2 ps2 slims for around 100 each.

It is a larger library box, painted a beige color with red trim and a red roof. The library has double doors and inside are two shelves pretty well packed with all sorts. Lots of science fiction and thrillers. I've not seen so many Star Trek books! This is charter 18714 and the steward has their name and email address in the online listing. The caption reads, "This library is sponsored by Rougemont Ruritan Club. The Rougemont community has quickly embraced our library because we are a rural community somewhat distant from public libraries. Since most Ruritan clubs are located in rural areas we believe that they would provide valuable service to their communities by sponsoring a Little Free Library."

I'm…read morenot sure if this is St. Josephs Episcopal Church or St. Basil the Great Romanian Orthodox Church but either way, the library is shaped and painted to look a lot like the church with the steeple roof and even a cross on top. Inside the library, I was expecting more religious books and there are some of them but also cookbooks and reference and classics and more. A little jumbled but still easy to see everything. It is in very good condition though parking is a challenge. The library does not have the Little Free Library plaque and does not appear in their database map.
