I have had this link passed to me about a library which is causing a lot of discussion about libraries on the bookcrossing lists - thought others might be interested in seeing this.

Anyone interested in bookcrossing.com the worldwide club for people to encourage reading by setting their books free should check their website at www.bookcrossing.com - I am a less active member than my sister who passed this to me, and have more talks about books through this than at work now my job has moved me away from the front line. They also post requests to other members who have listed their interests!
They have interesting threads about libraries on their chat sites - on yahoo especially where there is a British group. They are planning a big meeting in Birmingham in July - maybe a few of us should go to try and get some of the excitement back???
