A vending machine allowing people to swap books for free is proving popular with readers. More than 600 books have been swapped so far in the new scheme in Manchester's Corn Exchange, marketing manager Alison Hogarth said. She said it gives people the opportunity to read something they might not normally pick. www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-manchester-65187793 |

Thereβs a couple of free ones in my area. It works on the honour system. Iβve taken 3 books thus far (illustrated hardcover of The Da Vinci Code, Bram Stoker's Dracula & Alice Through the Looking Glass), but Iβve contributed none.  |

Supermarkets do it to, my Tesco's has a selection of books you can help yourself to and leave your own behind.
