Celebrating fREADom: Happy 4th of July!

In honor of the Declaration of Independence, what better way to celebrate than by reading?!

In fact, we’re reminded that Benjamin Franklin, the only Founding Father who is a signatory of all four of the major documents of the founding of the United States: the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Alliance with France, the Treaty of Paris and the United States Constitution, was also the inventor of the first subscription lending library!

While most libraries in America are closed today for the holiday, we wear it as a badge of honor and fREADom to be open all day for your reading pleasure.

For those who’d like to learn more about our hero Benjamin Franklin, we’re putting a brand new first edition of Walter Isaacson’s biography of Franklin into the library today.

 

 

I’m Thankful for My Neighborhood Little Free Library

I originally started my Little Free Library, in part, to divest myself of some of my collection of books to make some more space in the house.  Little did I know that the number (and variety) of interesting books I would come into contact with would increase dramatically! I wouldn’t have expected it, couldn’t have predicted it, probably would have told you I didn’t necessarily want it at the time, but now I’m very grateful for it.

Thank you friends and neighbors for the continued help and support! Thanks for sharing your favorite reads.

Labor Day + Books = A Real Vacation

Happy Labor Day everyone!

Not sure what to do before (or after) that end-of-the-summer BBQ party?  Why not stop by the library and pick up something to read at the end of the long weekend? Public libraries may be closed today, but our library is open 24/7.

Here’s what’s currently on the bookshelf: GoodReads Bookshelf for LFL #8424

We’ve also got a handful of recent popular magazines including Time, Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated, and Golf among several others.

If you’re starting to do your Autumn cleaning and run across a few good books that you don’t need anymore, please consider donating them so your friends and neighbors can give them a second life.

Enjoy what’s left of the long holiday.
