For my current set of tips, I'm using the list "101 Small Ways You Can Improve Your City."
4. Create a little free library. Libraries may change and evolve, but the pleasure and joy of reading a book remains.

Inspired by the wider Little Free Libraries movement, it’s creating a real-life literary community on city streets.
BookCrossing is another good idea, and requires no construction skills.
