Little Free Library - Five Points

This is playing at Central Cinema in Knoxville. It is highly recommend viewing. Especially with all the successful book bans happening in Tennessee.

Love your local library? Make sure they know you appreciate their willingness to carry books that others might object to. They hear plenty of negative stuff about what's in their collection, be sure to counter that. Thank them for having books by Kurt Vonnegut, Anthony Burgess, Judy Blume, Shel Silverstein, Toni Morrison, and any other frequently banned author. Email you local library director. Don't let Moms for Liberty be the only voice they hear.

In the past two years, two of our little library’s biggest donors have sadly passed on.

While we had a large store of books, those are quickly dwindling away, so we are on a renewed search for book and funding donations.

This little library goes through an average of 900 books per year, and that is 900 more books in kids’ homes! Everyone involved is 100% volunteer, so all donations go DIRECTLY to the little library.
