SANYA - A coastal resort city in South China, has converted fishing boats into a floating public library.

The so-called Sea Study is the first public library on the island of Ximaozhou, 8 nautical miles west of downtown Sanya, Hainan province.

"A life cannot be called life without books," said Chen Muhu, 78, a fisherman who was browsing archaeology books in the library.
