Maynard’s Music dedicating Little Free Record Store in Ocean Springs

Pretty soon music lovers will be gaining access to classic and vinyl records at one local library thanks to this music shop.

This Saturday, Maynard’s Music is dedicating a free community record shop to the Ocean Springs Library System.

Visitors will be able to donate and share their classic CDs, cassettes, vinyl records, and other music formats with the community.

The music box will be placed in the lobby area of the Ocean Springs Library.

Matthew Comstock, the owner of Maynard’s Music, says this music shop is the only one in the region. “This will be the first one that I know of in this region that offers a little free record shop as opposed to a little free bookstore. So yeah, this is the only one that I know of in this area. It was a little tough because we had to find a location where its inside. You know it has to be protected from the weather, the records can’t get hot or wet or anything like that. So, we’ve been working with the public library. They’re very excited about it and we are very, very, very excited about it.”

The dedication is happening Saturday at 1 p.m. at the Ocean Springs Library.
