Our Little Libraries bring books to local communities where the nearest library is some distance away. They’re installed at Council parks or facilities and are accessible 24/7. We stock our Little Libraries monthly with Books Set Free items, which gives library books from our collection a second life.
Members of the community are encouraged to keep books, share with others or return pre-loved books to the Little Libraries which results in a range of books being available.
If you think your community could use a Little Library, submit a request.
