The New York Times writes about community-generated libraries that are popping up on sidewalks across the country.
Little Free Libraries are small wooden boxes full of books with latched glass doors, slanted roofs and a sign that reads “Take a Book and Leave a Book.” You can purchase the posts directly from Little Free Library or build your own; each new library is asked to pay $25 to register with the nonprofit organization. The NYT reports that Little Free Libraries can be found in 2,200 locations in 30 different countries. To look at a gallery of these ridiculously adorable micro-libraries, click here.
