    Description

    Restock a Little Free Library in Lewis Center, Ohio

    We need your help to keep great books accessible to communities 24/7. As a volunteer, you will visit this Little Free Library in Lewis Center to restock it with books once every two months. This book-sharing box accepts any type of book - all genres, all ages of readers.

    We're looking for a volunteer who can commit to restocking this Little Free Library for 3 months. We can suggest free or low-cost sources of books - or, if you're a bookworm yourself, you can distribute your own. Approximately 10 books are needed once every two months.

    The flexibility can't be beat: visit the Little Free Library whenever it fits in your schedule, as long as it’s being restocked once every two months.

    Purpose: By keeping Little Free Libraries filled with books, you are helping to build community, inspire readers, and expand book access.

    Responsibilities:

    • Collect books for all ages of readers, from a variety of genres.
    • Travel to the Little Free Library to distribute books once every two months, over a 3 month commitment.
    • Use the Little Free Library app to check-in and track how many books you shared.
    • Submit an Impact form in our volunteer hub at the end of the 3 month commitment.

    Resources Available: We will help you get started with some tips for book sources and using our Little Free Library app.

    Qualifications:

    • Love Little Free Libraries and supporting book access!
    • Willing to collect or donate books for 3 months
    • Have access to transportation to take books to the Little Free Library
    • Great at communicating by email or phone

    Benefits: Experience the satisfaction of getting books into the hands of more readers. You’ll get a free Little Free Library t-shirt after you record your impact in the Team LFL online hub!

    Supervision & Support: You can connect with the Little Free Library steward or Brianna, the Community Engagement Manager, to ask questions.
