neighborhood free book boxes

In collaboration with Lilly Library, beautifully refurbished newspaper boxes provide children, teens and adults access to free books in their neighborhoods. Boxes are replenished weekly by staff and volunteers, assuring that they remain neat, clean and easily accessible.

Businesses and organizations throughout Northampton, Leeds and Florence are invited to contact us about providing outdoor space on which to place a box. Patrons are encouraged to apply to replenish and care for one box each week.

Please contact outreach@ForbesLibrary.org or 413-587-1019 to inquire about this new and exciting program.
