LITTLE FREE LIBRARY LTD

Little Free Library is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in St. Paul, Minnesota, that supports a global, volunteer-led network of neighborhood book-sharing boxes. The organization equips volunteer stewards, promotes equity-focused programs, and grants no-cost libraries to high-need and Indigenous communities to expand 24/7 access to books. In recent years LFL has scaled both reach and programming — launching and growing initiatives such as the Impact Library Program, the Indigenous Library Program, and Read in Color to place libraries and diverse books where they are needed most. The nonprofit also maintains a searchable world map and steward support services while working with schools, libraries, and community partners to strengthen literacy and neighborhood connection. LFL positions itself as an equity-minded literacy organization: it emphasizes placing libraries in book deserts, championing diverse books (including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ titles), and measuring community impact through steward surveys and program outputs.
