This library has two shelves, we were able to trade books when we visited.

This Library is named Little Vellichor:


Collins Online Dictionary suggests the following definition of Vellichor:
The wistfulness of a second-hand bookshop.
An invented word. From John Koenig’s wonderfully named site 'The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.' It was picked up by Twitter subscribers in August 2013. John Koenig wrote of his creation that it meant: the strange wistfulness of used bookstores, which are somehow infused with the passage of time" Example: “There’s a bookshop on the corner and just walking past fills me with a sense of vellichor.”
