Nadia, along with her brother, Arthur, and a little help from her parents, built the rolling barn and stocked it with great books from the Friends of Fairport Public Library and private donations.  The library is free to use and works on the honor system: borrow a book for as long as you like and either return it or replace it with an old favorite!
