Learn📚. Support💙. Celebrate✨. February is Black History Month, and we partnered with our friends at @hummingbirdbookstore to stock our Little Free Libraries with books by Black authors that celebrate stories from the Black community. Connect, explore, and learn by picking up a new book, or contributing a new one for our community to enjoy. 📖

There are so many beautiful stories told by Black authors, and our selection of featured books (developed via @theconsciouskid’s fantastic book list) is just a starting point. We restock our Libraries weekly, so be sure to check for a fresh read during your next visit. And, if you can’t find the book you’re looking for, visit Hummingbird Books!

Have a book recommendation for our LFL? Drop us a note so we can connect!

Our Little Free Libraries can be found outside of Legal Seafoods and Star Market. ✨
