Summary

Public libraries were closed for some time due to the coronavirus. This street library was found on a street in front of a house for people to 'take a book, leave a book'. A great idea for those who love to read with a book in hand, but couldn't visit a library in person because they were closed. Digital books/materials could still be borrowed. Local government libraries re-opened in Stage 1 of the Roadmap to Recovery, from May 11, 2020.
