Review for Little Free Library, St. Paul, MN, USA
As an educator, a couple of years ago I won some grant money and used it to buy and install a Little Free Library in front of the 3 schools in our district. Some of our students live in an unincorporated area and don't have access to a public library. The Little Library was one of the only ways the students could get books throughout the summer once the school year ended and the school library was closed. Now with the schools, public libraries and stores closed for Covid-19, our Little Free Libraries are the only way students are getting books to read. We can barely keep it full. We are also using the Little Library to put curriculum materials in for students to pick up what they need to continue their remote learning from home. Our students, families and teachers are grateful for having the Little Free Libraries at this crazy time in our lives. What a great role the Little Free Library people are playing in the lives of schools and neighborhoods.
