Today's the UNESCO #WorldBookDay! #OpenStreetMap can help you find books.
We map libraries <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dlibrary> (incl. little free libraries <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dpublic_bookcase>), and bookshops <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dbooks>.
Several books have been published about #OSM: <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Books>
We want OSM to be used, so if you need a map for your book, we have very generous & liberal attribution requirements: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Attribution_Guidelines (and can show where to buy your stationary https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:shop%3Dstationery )
@openstreetmap And also public bookcases or "small/tiny libraries"! :)

@richlv @openstreetmap I've added a few myself over the years. i'm still surprised at how many of these exist (in Belgium as well)
@thibaultmol @richlv @openstreetmap
Cool tag ! :) Also adding those in Wallonia (Belgium) with pictures (thanks to @MapComplete) and displaying them nicely as well as other free public resources (give boxes, solidarity fridges, ...) on our solidarity map: https://shareish.org/
@openstreetmap I recently did a very short video about mapping the small, free libraries aka "public bookcases": https://youtu.be/_cT1FDvSjoY?si=nm93mdp400K456jP Was planning to do one about mobile libraries for today, but by their nature, they're very hard to track down. Hopefully soon though.
@MapComplete @openstreetmap Great timing. I just found this beauty in a little fishing village in Kerala.
