		<description><![CDATA[Fine by me.  The kids books have never worked as well as the adult books on the &quot;community shelf&quot; at Venetian Pools.  They just disappear, don&#039;t get replaced.  But that might not be the case elsewhere.  At kid&#039;s consignment sales, the books are usually a real popular area.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Love the idea and I have a few to donate.  Can I suggest the Decatur Library as an actual location for the bookcase? I work for a library and we have one near the entrance. It&#039;s not a big shelf and it&#039;s all based on the honor system. Some days there are meager pickings. Some days there are only trashy romances. But almost always I see books in there. It&#039;s not that over thought and it works.

If not the Library, then maybe a few businesses would like to participate in a &quot;Books Around Decatur&quot; type thing. I could see small bookcases inside places like Dancing Goat, Karvana, Brick Store Pub, the Post Office (OMG, the post office could totally use a book case because there is ALWAYS a long line), etc. I think putting one outside, especially with all the rain, makes it more complicated that it needs to be.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, great response to this!  

I&#039;ll follow up with the city and find out what needs to be done to go about this legally.  Once we have an idea of where it can go, we can move on to finding a bookcase to fulfill the task.  

I&#039;m pretty sure it&#039;s going to need doors.  And depending on where it is located it may need to be water resistant.  

I&#039;m already thinking too far down the road.  Like a weekly post detailing 5 random books on the shelf.]]></description>
