"The Reanimation Library is a small, independent Presence Library open to the public. It is a collection of books that have fallen out of routine circulation and been acquired for their visual content. Outdated and discarded, they have been culled from thrift stores, stoop sales, and throw-away piles, and given new life as a resource for artists, writers, cultural archeologists, and other interested parties."

The library's website was created only with Open Source software (although they do admit to using PhotoShop as well). The site is full of fascinating and somewhat crazy images. The library uses social media, so you can friend them on Facebook.
Definitely worth a virtual visit!
