12 Inspiring Alternate Little Library Ideas

Part of our mission at Little Free Library is to build community, which we aim to do by inspiring readers and expanding book access around the world. We envision a world with a book-sharing box in every community (find one near you using the Little Free Library map!) But sometimes sharing boxes pop up containing more than books — or sometimes, something else entirely. 

Little Free Library has sparked a number of spinoffs since its inception, and we’re amazed by the creativity we’ve seen. (Of course, the name “Little Free Library” is trademarked with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, so using our name without permission is not allowed.) Check out these eleven alternate community sharing boxes. The possibilities really are endless!
