Distribute books to Little Free Libraries near you
I'm Interested!

We need your help to keep great books accessible to communities 24/7. Visit Little Free Libraries in your community to distribute books! 

We can suggest where to look for free or inexpensive books, or if you already have some, you can share those too. You can find book-sharing boxes near you using our world map or free mobile app

Register online in our volunteer hub to get started. Once you sign up, you will get access to tips & resources. Our Little Free Library staff can answer your questions. You can share books whenever it works for you.  

Purpose: By keeping Little Free Libraries full of books, you are helping to build community, inspire readers, and expand book access. 

Responsibilities:

  • Collect books that are in good shape and relevant for your community.
  • Go to Little Free Libraries near you and leave books inside. 
  • Use the Little Free Library app to check-in and tell us how many books you shared.
  • Submit an Impact form here in our volunteer hub when you're done.

Time required: You set your own schedule. It could be a one-time project or a regular book distribution schedule.

How we can support you: We'll help you start with some online training, and we will suggest sources for books.

  • Willing to collect or donate books
  • Have access to transportation to take books to the Little Free Library
