in Nearby LIttle Free Libraries

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve visited a few of the other nearby Glendale, Pasadena, and South Pasadena Libraries. You can find most of them on the official map at Little Free Library’s newly updated website.

There are also a handful of libraries not on the map that are stewarded by the City of Glendale and the Department of Libraries, Art, and Culture. The one with the best selection by far was the one at the Montrose Community Park, followed by Verdugo Park, and then City Hall.  Sadly, when I visited this morning, the LFL at Cerritos Park was completely bare! We’ll have to take some books over to share the next time we go.

The empty and lonely Cerritos Park Little Free Library

South Pasadena has a lovely grouping of three libraries with great selection in the middle of town within just a few blocks of each other (on Oak by the Middle School and near Holy Family church), making them an ideal neighborhood for an evening’s postprandial stroll.

For those who are Dr. Who fans, there’s a Little Free Library Tardis over in San Gabriel.

Pasadena Arroyo CoOp

An outdoor library (apparently not an official LFL, or maybe it’s charter sign was stolen) at the Arroyo Co op with some convenient outdoor seating.

On the North side of Garfield in South Pasadena, this Little Free Library has some excellent selection and is in a strollable neighborhood.
