I found a free library near my house. Sadly sun damaged for the majority of them, but Arizona problems. The picture on the app is not what I expected. Mostly romance for me and quite a few kids books. At least my kiddos found something. 🤷♀️
pickA charming little tale about a mysterious visitor who leaves puzzling gifts in exchange for the books they borrow.
It's a very short story (about 10 pages long), so if you'd like to add some well written magic to your day, but don't have time to read a full book, I definitely recommend this little story.
You can even read it for free if you download Tor's free anthology with their best short stories of 2020: https://amzn.eu/d/8Xdm8Ka
Added a little free library to our book desert neighbourhood here in Haida Gwaii. It has been up for about a three weeks, and we have had 14 books taken, 12 added… pretty good for a town of 150! Many thanks to my expert advisor @LeahBergen #lfl #littlefreelibrary
I love finding #littlefreelibraries everywhere I go!
This one was in Crystal River, Florida.
The LFL I typically use is at the community center where I take aquatics classes, but for various reasons I haven‘t been there since before Thanksgiving. I have a bit of a backlog! Time to scope out some other options.
Meanwhile, here‘s where I am with my #joyousjanuary goals.
-slow progress with Emma, who‘s quite an annoying character
-Roverandom is cute
-I started something from my #readordonate shelf
-1 magazine issue read and recycled
Decorated my LFL for Halloween! Also added “Coraline” & other deliciously scary books. Bucket list item completed! 10 points for my list. #Scarathlon #lfl #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #bucketlist
This is the free library in the village I am living since one year. I keep on constantly checking it but so far I could not find interesting books for me. 🧐
Was at a park near my house and saw that there‘s a LFL there! Did not know it was there until now, and I do happen to have books to put in it!
There was significant storm damage in my neck of the woods yesterday. My neighbors maple tree came down into my front yard (the sound!) missing my house by inches (sparing my much-needed, long saved-for $10k paint job completed on Wednesday!). My decorative 8 foot cone-shaped fir tree did not survive the hit by the maple tree, but I think it‘s my only damage beside cleanup. … I took this pic of an LFL while looking at all the storm damage.
Happy Little Free Library Week! Perfect time to visit a new or favorite LFL near you. Enjoying the one we co-steward near us. #lfl
My sweet co-worker brought two bags of books for my lending library 😍
We'll see how many make it to the library vs my tbr at home 😄
pickBrowsing Storygraph for other works by Naomi Kritzer, I saw this image and was intrigued enough to check whether, with an individual listing and a total count of 13 pages, if it may have found its way online, free to access. Turns out I was right, NO pirating involved:

A marvelous little fantasy tale in the tradition of expanding on the power and potential of books and libraries.
Our elementary school PTO just installed this #LFL for community use! Today, at school pick-up, I put in three grownup books (bottom right). I‘m culling my collection, so planning to donate a few grownup books every week through the end of the school year. I love this vessel for sharing our love of reading!

Saw this on FB and it make me chuckle!
Little Free Library for the win 🏆
Year 2 of candy and books for Halloween is a wrap! Gave away about 50 kids, middle grade, and YA books! Tons of parents told us how much they appreciate visiting our LFL regularly with their kids. 📚💕
When the LFL is outside of your local bar 😂📖🍻
Found this free little library in Shubenacadie Wildlife Park, just before we headed out in our canoe for an hour. Spectacular day celebrating my daughter‘s 25th birthday.
Visited my first ever little free library… it was raining so I didn‘t have *as* close a look as I would have liked but I shoved in a DWJ and a Mary Stewart and took out a random book that had a pretty cover 🫣 exciting stuff! ☔️
Kind of tempted to paint my fridge now tbh.
My boys placed several like-new Little Golden Books (Marvel, DC, Star Wars, etc) in the LFL at one of our amazing local parks. 💚 Sure hope some little ones take these home and enjoy!

I finally have my very own Little Free Library for years. My dad made me one. I am so excited! ❤️📚❤️📚❤️📚
The PTA hosted an end of year party for the kids (school gets out on the 22nd). I rolled out the cart of free books. They still can't believe they get to keep the book.
This little free library is so cute. You can find it in Kòpavogur/Iceland. ?
Currently I am travelling in Iceland and found this little free library in front of the swimmingpool of Vestubærlaug in Reyjakvik. Mostly English and Islandic books can be found here.
My Little Free Library garden has been getting it‘s spring spruce up over the last 2 weekends. Got the new baby plants and mulch in today. Mexican Heather and Lantana. I can‘t wait to see how the flowers do! 💜 I added some new books after I was done digging too. 😁📚🌸
My Little Free Library is open for business 🤗📚👏. My husband and son put the kit together & painted it for me. Today it finally got bolted to our front wall. Yay! It‘s already been raided by the neighbours. #streetlibrary
I found a #littlefreelibrary!
Wandering today in Beacon NY. Someone left some VHS tapes in there 😂 looks like it could use a better selection, I wonder if anyone is taking care of it?
There‘s one in my neighbourhood I‘ve been meaning to drop some stuff off at but I‘m unsure of the etiquette of dropping multiple books.
Reorganized my book shelves and found some that needed a new home. I donated some of them to nearby Little Free Libraries.

i love finding these little magical things… #readingisfundamental #takeoneleaveone
Our LFL, The Monarch Manor, opened last week. It was a crazy wild ride and thank God my BFF drove over to help me set up, make sure I ate, and kept my nerves down. I was so scared no one would show up. That was not the case though, we ended up getting 37 books into kids hands in ONE afternoon. I‘m so excited I get to bless children this way! It was a great success!!!

Can we talk about how awesome this dude is? He absolutely hates reading, doesn‘t understand why I do it so much, enjoy it, or spend money on books (I know, I know, he has good qualities too, I swear!) BUT he loves me enough to learn how to wood work, paint, seal, and about a million other little things to make my hearts desire come true! Our families very own LFL!
Found in East Yorkshire. Nice selection of books too!
On my way to work I dropped off two cozy mysteries and the #booksleeve I made last night to the #littlefreelibrary by my house.
Please help our Little Free Library reach our goal of 100 books in children‘s hands. We are located a few homes down from the neighborhood k-8th school, so many of the bike rider/walkers go RIGHT PAST OUR HOUSE! We have the opportunity to impact so many children and hopefully start or foster their love of reading and learning. Please repost!

I went for an impromptu walk through the woods at the local arboretum and stumbled upon this little free “Forest Library” for children. Pretty magical! 🌳🍄📚
I often keep my eyes peeled for little free libraries when I'm out exploring. This may be the cutest one I've ever seen! (Located in downtown Cedarburg, WI)
This little jewel is along my walk route. I always stop to peer in for a few seconds and see if there are any new ones. Most of the bottom shelf is fresh books today. Do you have a #FreeLittleLibrary near you?!

I spent much of the pandemic off of Twitter, and over the past couple weeks, I‘ve been there more often.
But the blowback this tweet from the Bloomington PD is getting is a great reminder that social media sucks sometimes. People are actually mad that LFL stewards don‘t want their libraries pillaged. “Free means free! Those books are worthless! You‘ve got no proof they‘re being resold!”
This is why we can‘t have nice things.
Little Free Library with a gorgeous sunset and beach view! Can‘t beat that!! Spotted in Surf City, NC near Topsail Beach 🏖 📖
Donating a few books before hitting the playground. Yay for summer break! ☀️
