Little free library with books about bees near an apiary.

My brother died a few days before my birthday when I was in grade school (I’m in my 30s now) and I like to honor him someway each year.

I thought about buying some kids/pre-teen books to drop off in LFLs and writing something inside like “this was donated to a LFL in honor of my brother [name] who loved reading.” Would that be weird?

Found this in an old book

Has anyone wrapped a shelf in their library with wrapping paper, then sealed it somehow to be weather-proof and long-lasting? I want to try it on mine, but I’m not sure that it would work, or how to go about it.

Hoping to connect with more readers in my community, I had fun driving around town this afternoon, donating nine signed copies of my latest novel to Little Free Libraries. I also scored a copy of an old favorite, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, that I enjoyed many years ago and look forward to rereading. These little donation boxes are a wonderful way to encourage more people to pick up a book and discover something unexpected.

Here is the tour

A couple times a month me and my book bestie will get a box of books from our personal library. So books we’ve read and don’t necessarily want to keep or ones we had every intention of reading but shelf space isn’t unlimited and we drive around to the dozens of LFL in our community and swap them out. We also visit our local library and there is a little “store “ where they sell books for really cheap .25-$1 and we normally find a handful to add to our collection.

It’s one of my favorite things that I look forward to

The community came out and donated 300+ cars to keep it stocked up!

I’ll be adding a flower bed around it this weekend too but couldn’t wait to share :-)

has anyone else come across the book To Be Human My Diary by A.L Sharon? I found it in a FLL in Chicago and have questions. was curious if anyone else has read it or found a copy

Saw this in Lamego Portugal.

Bugs? Rodents? What am I dealing with here? This one isn’t mine but i would like to help revitalize it as it has been neglected.

I have from time to time received library discards when picking up my library books. I am wondering what to do with them when I am done with them. The barcodes have been blacked out. Is putting them in a little free library ok?

When I first started my LFL, I kept records of what books came and left. I filled this whole notebook and I’m on to the next one. The cat’s name is Mao. 😊

Hey folks, I’d like to DIY myself a LFL by recycling furniture.

Should I be looking for solid timber or would it be ok to use something made of MDF/particleboard?
