Phone box has new life as library
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/somerset/8385313.stm

  "A traditional red phone box has been recycled into one of the
  country's smallest lending libraries - stocking 100 books.  Villagers
  from Westbury-sub-Mendip in Somerset can use the library around the
  clock, selecting books, DVDs and CDs.  Users simply stock it with a
  book they have read, swapping it for one they have not.
  ...
  A resident dreamed up the idea when the village lost its phone box and
  mobile library in quick succession."
