As I'm trimming down my own home library, I'd already dropped those books at other libraries so today it was a browse and take opportunity.

They've done a great job with rubber gaskets to protect the books from the Florida wet weather. Inside, there are three shelves that were very well organized. The bottom shelf is for big books and had only a single paperback. The center shelf is all magazines and such. The top shelf has a mix of hardcovers and paperbacks.

There is no specific steward listed. The online caption reads, "Pine Island Elementary installed a lending library near the front of the school campus doors.
