Here is a fairly radical idea - place books by where people need them and are most likely to use them. One variation places libraries like this near mass transit stations. Where such stations do not exist, finding other highly visited public areas is another option. Take a book, leave a book. Literacy and community sharing are achieved all at the same time.
