There are dozens of these in my neighborhood in Washington DC and they're huge hits. I see people of all backgrounds and languages perusing, sorting, maybe giving the books a quick shuffle. They're generally well-treated and well-respected. There was one that got bashed up a few weeks ago, but it reappeared a few days later, patched up. In general they are well-loved parts of the community, and a reason to have just a little remaining faith in the goodness of humanity. RIP Todd, you did a wonderful thing. (You also gave me a great way to unload my own library, book by book by book over the past few years).
