As you drive around NoVA, you’ve probably noticed Little Free Library boxes scattered across the region. Actually, there are hundreds of registered free libraries around NoVA. The nonprofit organization welcomes volunteers to build their own libraries to help share a love of reading with their community.
You can find them in your neighborhood, at businesses or churches, and even in parks. Readers of all ages are encouraged to take, borrow, and leave books at the book-sharing boxes. Here are 24 Little Free Library locations in Northern Virginia to check out.
