Nestled in the small town of Clinton Corners, New York, next to a small cafe, inside a small British phone booth is America’s smallest library!
Created by the Clinton Community Library in an effort to improve community outreach (success!), The Book Booth is a library powered by the people: besides it’s unique phone booth location, The Book Booth features a “readcycling” program (take a book, leave a book,) specialty hours (open 24/7/365,) and an awesome green initiative (solar panels have been installed on top of the booth, and the light is motion sensitive.)
If you’re in the New York area, The Book Booth is definitely worth a visit. And if you’re planning to be in NY for Halloween, The Book Booth might be dressed up as a certain time lord’s traveling device…

This is awesome, but it’s not America’s Smallest Library. There’s one in a birdhouse down the street from where I live....
Brilliant!
I need to go here! This is so cute!
HOLY CRAP THIS IS SO AWESOME. Now...only it were blue…
Awesome outreach effort on part of the library! Also, rumor that the Book Booth will be disguised as a TARDIS? Very...
Omg!!!!!!! I want to go here so bad!!!
