#FSbooks-LFL 4920 N 18th St. this game is really fun. It’s pretty easy in Arlington because they are everywhere. Just landed in Salt Lake so hope I can find some out here (and a fat tire bike to rent).
This library had an interesting selection with a book on Buddhism. Seem to find a lot of religion books in LFLs. Didn’t expect that when the game started.

Okay, this may not even count, because Tapatalk has been misbehaving and not letting me post since just before midnight when I started trying. Plus, there is no way to get my bike into the photo. Let me know, and I’ll untag the ride.
The problem is, the library is described as being at the entrance to the Pence Law Library at American University. But it is not at the entrance to the building; it is at the entrance from the building into the library. (Doesn’t it violate the spirit of the thing to have a Little Free Library where the public can’t access it?) So all I could do is take a picture of it through a window, and there was no way to get my bike into that shot.
The proprietor indicates that they want light fiction, for law students tired of reading nothing but case law. So if you can actually get in, that’s what you should donate.

Several of the LFL’s here are behind locked doors or fences. I agree, it completely violates the spirit of the L FREE L. But, there it is.
Of course it counts. You do good work.

My daughter who’s interested in becoming a chef found a very cool book on specialty deserts.

Extra points for getting a kid out to ride in this kind of cold AND then she found a great book that feeds her passion. LOVE kid cyclists!
11104 Stillwater Avenue, Kensington, MD 20895. The proprietor says, “I hope this brings with it the joy of reading to young and old alike.” However, the only book for the young was a children’s dictionary. It could use more children’s books.

I’m sensing a theme with all these LFL’s that NEED children’s books. Perhaps time to send out an “ask” for outgrown children’s books to be left on people’s curbs for you to redistribute?
