About the Free Little Library
Shands and Joan McKeithen
Background
The Tampa Bay Times ran an article about “Little Free Libraries” and we were impressed with the idea of sharing books with our neighbors and friends. So my husband (Shands) got on the web site, www.littlefreelibrary.org, got the plans and made one. We hope all of River Forest neighbors will enjoy some of the books and also put some books into the box.
Living Library
We have had a few folks stop by and put in books as well as take out books. These free libraries are all over the USA and started by a man in Wisconsin to commemorate the life of his Mother, a teacher and an avid reader. Since the beginning the libraries have spread though out the USA. Check it out on your computer!
