I wonder how much it affects libraries that I can also walk a block in any direction and find a Little Free Library in one of my neighbor’s front yards. These certainly don’t replace the need for libraries, but I’d also have to pass up a lot of free books on my way to the library if I ever ran out of reading material.
Honestly, I doubt those affect things very much. I think I have seen decent stuff maybe once or if every 20 times I walk by a little free library. I am generally looking for a specific book when going to the library or getting an ebook from there.
