Start a Little Free Library at your club, local comic shop, game store, or elsewhere.
You love books and want to get them out there and into people’s hands. Great comics, amazing job advice, helpful manuals on programming – whatever you love, you want it out there. You also know that reading is best when shared, as part of a group, and it can change people’s lives.
Consider making a Little Free Library at your geeky establishment of choice. Little Free Libraries are small containers, some quite artistically designed, where people play by the take-a-book-leave-a-book rule. Little Free Libraries encourage craftsmanship (to make), socialization (giving people a place to gather and interact), and of course reading because they involve books.
A few suggestions:
- Have a portable Little Free Library that travels from convention to convention.
- Have a themed Little Free Library at a comic store, game store, or so on that focuses on given product.
- Have a themed Little Free Library for a book club dedicated to fantasy, SF, etc.
