They are entirely free and there are no cards or fees for late returns. In the past twelve months, many residents have created their own street libraries to unite the community in a time where many could not visit a library. Many members of the public are always on the lookout for little street libraries in the area. The owner of North Arm Cove’s street library wrote on their library bio, “I’m a great believer in minimising unnecessary waste and therefore in recycling, and this includes books. “This is the first Street Library located in the small village of North Arm Cove where quite a high proportion of the residents spend a lot of their time reading.” Here’s a list of all the current Street Libraries in the Myall Coast area: Stroud Street, Buladelah Cowper Street, Stroud Mungo Brush Road, Hawks Nest Cove Boulevard, North Arm Cove George Street, Karuah Pindimar Water Side, Pindimar Visit https://streetlibrary.org.au/ for more information about how to start your own street library.
