Where Are They Now? LFL Locations

Last March, the Princeton Library along with some energetic patrons and partners created a program to construct, share, create, and distribute structures known as Little Free Libraries.  After a great deal of enthusiasm and participation our goal was reached to share the libraries with Princeton and the surrounding areas.  Currently there are approximately 15 Little Free Libraries installed for everyone to enjoy. Here are the locations so far.
