Like
Chicklet Books in Princeton, N.J., which has several Christmas trees
made out of books (depicted here yesterday), the Adelaide Hills Council
Library Service in Woodside, South Australia, has its own unusual
tree species. The library's is made from used books for the body of the
tree, magazine pages for the stars and cassette tape for the
tinsel--all old library stock left over from the last book sale. One of
our most geographically distant readers, Zoe Lewis, youth services
officer at the library, wrote, "Our customers love it."
