This has to be the best use of an old phonebox:
Turn it into a Library, as they have in Westbury

Neat idea, but don't the books get damp over time?
Our village phone box is under threat so I've forwarded this in case it sparks ideas.

Saw this on the news, think it's awesome!
If they did it in cambridge, they would have to have 3/4 of the post box dedicated to computers, tea rooms, video rooms, machines for checking out books, comfy sofas, play areas, and other things not necessarily needed in a library.

But tea rooms and comfy sofas can solve all the worlds evils.
