Red phone box in Horsley turned into library (UK)

Red phone box in Horsley turned into library (UK)A Surrey man has filled his local red phone box with books so it can be used as a library. James Econs, 27, said he believed nobody was using the box at the corner of Kingston Avenue, Horsley, to make calls. He donated his own books and was given more by friends and relatives for others to borrow, read and then return. BT said it was a creative way for the phone box to become part of the community. Mr Econs said he got "absolutely nothing" out of it apart from the pleasure of giving something to others
