Minibieb on Texel

You will come across them all over the island. Small bookcases filled with books. By the roadside or in the front garden of a house. Minibiebs are mini-libraries where you can borrow or swap a book for free. The mini-library stands or falls on ‘good faith’ from the users. On Texel, this faith is justified because these mini-libraries are always stocked nicely with great reads!
