This Is What We’re Building
A Space Where Every Child Belongs
This is what a library can feel like.
A place where every child is seen, valued, and believes in themselves.

Little Free Library
If you want to start a Little Free Library book exchange, you’re in the right place. We’re excited to have you join the network, now more than 200,000 Little Free Libraries strong! Watch the one-minute video to see how Little Free Libraries work and learn how you can start a little library, too.
We also recommend using the Little Free Library mobile app or web map to find a Little Free Library near you. Stop by and chat with the volunteer steward of that library and ask for their advice as you get started.
Start A Book Club
Did you know kids can start book clubs too?
All you need are a few friends and a book. Pick a story together, read it, and then meet to talk about your favorite parts. You might love the same characters or have different ideas, and that’s what makes it fun.
You can meet at home, at a library, at school, or even online. Some clubs read every week and some meet once a month.
Starting a book club is a great way to discover new stories and help your friends love reading too.
One kid. One book. One library at a time.
Welcome!
We are excited to share the continued growth of
