Episode 2: Reading Into Little Free Libraries

Book exchanges have been around pretty much forever, but then in 2012 a movement was born. Now, hundreds of thousands of boxes filled with books are permanently affixed to people’s properties. Some love them, some cannot abide them. Some don’t get what the fuss is about. And from these premises was born an unironic investigation into a moral dilemma of questionable stakes: are little free libraries something we should be concerned about? And, why are they so popular, still? Show notes Jane Schmidt and Jordan Hale’s open-access article can be found on the Journal of Radical Librarianship website.Little Free Library founder Tod Bol on Schmidt and Hale’s paper. A link to Dan and Trina’s book bombing Facebook GroupThe West Howe Sound Story, by Francis J. Van Den Wyngaert. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
