free library
No-cost lending collection
A free library is a public library supported by taxes or donations, offering books and other materials without charge to borrowers.
The term also refers to small, informal book-sharing stations—often wooden boxes on posts in residential neighborhoods—where anyone can take or leave books: Someone put up a free library on their front lawn.
