Little Free Libraries are a great way for communities to share books. The first Little Free Little Library was built by Todd H. Bol in 2009 as a tribute to his mother, who had passed away. Since then, communities across the United States and in other countries have seen families and individuals creating free little libraries of their own. Rutherford is one of those places where several of these libraries can be found. Below you will find beautiful photos of these libraries by Rutherford resident Luisa Pineda and the addresses where you can find them.
