there's one on every other block in my part of the city. I've seen all sorts of people peek inside, and I always check them and sometimes I find good stuff. Examples: a dictionary of mystical symbols, a beat up copy of Perdido Street Station by China Miéville, A collection of Blake's poetry and illustrations, a random zine printed in the bay area in the 90s, a Blockbuster DVD of Cronenberg's eXistenZ, and yes, a vegan cookbook. Sometimes I'll keep some agitprop in my car to deposit on my delivery runs.
Ive always wanted to make them and like those and that would serve as another usage of them as well. Definitely plan on putting some vegan stuff in once I make mime
Does anybody actually use little free libraries? The only thing I see stocked in them are cook books, airport pulp, and dogshit self help books.

Ive thought about building one and just filling with leftist and vegan literature and pamphlets all the time to get people to take
If you live somewhere with lots of foot traffic or families I definitely think it's worthwhile.

Lots of good children books in a lot of them
Really really depends on your neighbors
I found a wonderful and out of print book of obscure Hellenistic mythology that was written in the 1910s and reprinted in the 1950s.
I hope you scanned it if it's not online!
I lost that book in a moving disaster years ago before I could.
Picked up a neat book a few years ago on medieval european millenarianism. Got me through a week of the bullshit job I was working back then.
iirc the book was called "In Pursuit of the Millennium" but it was ages ago
