Why We Can’t Have Nice Things Pt 542867

Free libraries and book exchanges are one of life’s little joys. So we’re sad to say that all book swaps at London Underground stations have been removed.

Apparently, they are a fire hazard. Which is strange, because I travel by Tube, and every station has a little container of free newspapers, the 'Metro', which despite being made of paper, don't appear to be the same risk.

Maybe because TfL employees count as newspaper staff? Who knows?
