I was walking down a street near my office and happened upon one of these Little Libraries. What a great idea. I'm going to make one for my neighborhood.

Berea, Kentucky has a close-knit community, we have adopted the Little Libraries and incorporated free little pantries during the pandemic. What a wonderful idea!

Oh my god! this is incredible, amazing, so admirable. I'm from Chile, I didn't know about Free Library. It's just something unbelievable. You have so many things that help your people have good education and gives more opportunities to learn. I admire you, in my country people doesn’t care much about reading, learning more, we have bad education, and a lot of crime. If I put a Free Library outside my house, I’m sure no one would use it and in a few days it would be stolen. Things like this shows why you are happy and intelligent people. claps

I especially like the theater themed Little Library! So sweet!

[@MegaArchivist]

Truly wonderful!

[@samanthajenkins760]

I think regular books need to make a big come back instead of being on the phone or computers all the time. I love the videos so much. I wish we had book stores here in are town maybe then alot of us can do that to. That is a very good idea.

The theater one has really inspired me to build one like our local historic theater.

I'm gonna be so sad when some jerk eventually smashes it tho.

[@JessBookgirlTV]

What a wonderful idea! t's better than people either being on their smartphones or tablets.

I especially like the repurposed newspaper box and the movie theater one. Yay, LFL!

[@KandiKlover]

Everyone should just use the newspaper boxes. They've made been in the business so long and the design reflects that. Lot harder for vandals and sever weather to destroy the box and damage the books.

[@room121manufacturing9]

totally building one!

[@agathevalade2956]

Good idea to be close of our neighbor !

[@ms.royaltylawrence7812]

I'm.signing up!

[@clairemorrisdobie9977]

Maybe it's time to revive this idea.

[@KandiKlover]

Its still alive and has been since starting in 2009. Highly active.

[@joanne8987]

Where do you get the little free library logo to put on the library??

[@paulapeloquin4508]

shop.littlefreelibrary.org/collections/library-accessories I think you have to register to have the charter number option, but that's what I found! Hope this helps!

[@KandiKlover]

If you buy a box from them they handle that all at once for you. So expensive tho.

[@kelseywoods2985]

I think it’s around $35 to purchase just the sign on their website which registers you as an official little free library

[@rithikashah1665]

What if some punks take away all the books and return nothing?

[@roccomepose8130]

Doing it!
