What is

a Little Free Library? Itโ€™s a โ€œtake a book, return a bookโ€ gathering place where neighbors share their favorite literature and stories. In its most basic form, a Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick up a book (or two) and bring back another book to share.

Who made the Richmond Avenue LFL? The library was started by its steward, Whitney Crispell. She asked local carpenter Sean Wrafter, of Wrafterbuilt (http://wrafterbuilt.com/), to design and build the library structure. Wrafter's original design includes reclaimed materials. Whitney then hand-painted and lettered the outside of the library before it was installed.

Pretty happy that the only mischief our Library endured last night was a near clear-out of all books. I like to think it was a group of trick-or-treaters who decided they had enough candy! ๐ŸŽƒ

Some zombie novels and sci-fi, just in time for Halloween. Make sure you trick-or-treat with us tomorrow!

Spotted this free library on the Toronto Islands yesterday, and had to snap a pic! Really love their sign: "Take a book, leave a book (or not)"

This really is the City of Good Neighbors! Twice today I came home to find library users "fixing up" the library. Thanks to them the library now has weather stripping. Love our neighborhood ๐Ÿ‘ซ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ“š
