"Cute Library box, Fantastic Garden"…read more This is a cute, fairly new library box situated on the grounds of the water district office. The box is good, but the garden surrounding the box is fantastic. After you exchange a book or two, check out the community garden. There are lots of places to sit and relax, and enjoy nature. But don't steal any of the fruit from the orchard!

"Yea--another Free Library box in Dublin!"…read more I happened to be driving past this pretty street and noticed the surprising book box across the street from the Presbyterian Church. The box has small Christmas lights on the edges. I'll have to come back here at night and see if it really lights up. The day that I visited the box had all kinds of books, both kids as well as adults. I left them a brand-new hardcover book. This box was created by our local girl scout troop. At first, I wasn't sure if it was a Girl Scout or Boy Scout Troop but I looked it up on the internet and it is indeed a Girl Scout Troop. Bravo bravo! The library appears to be quite old, but seems to be holding up pretty well. Thank you Girl Scout Troop 32255 for setting up this nice little box!

"Magical Book Box"…read more This cute little library book box is one of the latest in the series commissioned by the city of Dublin. This one is in Kolb Park. Look for it next to the tennis courts.

It looks like a lot of people are using this book box, since it's stock is pretty much depleted.

Wow Dublin, my hometown, finally has its first little free library book box!…read more This book box was provided by the students as a project for the graduating class of 2019. It's a well-constructed sturdy box located at the front of the school/church. It's right across the street from Shannon Center. The day that I visited it was stocked wirh hardcover, as well as soft cover books. The quality of the books is definitely superior to most other book boxes I have seen. There was a wide assortment of books all the way from juvenile to adult. Keep in mind that you can't legally park right in front of the box. However, you can park across the street. Thanks to the graduating class of 2019 for creating such a wonderful book box for the community!

This is another one of the brand new Little Free Library book boxes, sponsored and commissioned by…read morethe city of Dublin. This one is located in the huge Fallon Sports Fields complex, in east Dublin. Note that this sports park has two levels. This book box is on the lower level, close to the main baseball and soccer fields. This book box must be quite popular, because almost all of the books were gone! Well, that's a good thing, if people are reading lots of books. As with the other book boxes in the series, this one is brightly decorated. This time, the artist left her signature on the side, near the bottom. Thank you, city of Dublin, for creating such a cute little attraction.

"Little Free Library + food pantry"…read more This is one of the more ingenious little free libraries I've seen. Not only is it a library, it is a food pantry as well. And don't forget the community bulletin board right next door. The book box contains a lot of books, divided between adult and kids' books. Plenty to choose from, and also plenty to eat. If you need some food. Thank you to the owners for adding such a wonderful asset to our community.

"Hydroponic Plants + Free books!"…read more This Little Library is right at the store entrance for the Hydroponics Garden store. It didn't have a huge amount of books inside the day I visited, but there were a few. The library is sort of small, and you sort of have to know where it is to find it. Otherwise, it's okay, but nothing special.

"Wow-- right in my own neighborhood!"…read more This little Free Library apparently was built recently. I happened to see it whilst coming back from breakfast. It is a brand new box, beautifully built and sturdy. It is just off the sidewalk. The day that I visited it was crammed with all kinds of great books both for adults and children.

How Conservatives won the Heart of American" (Thomas Frank) -in it's infancy, Kansas was an anti-slavery state. they literally had battles with pro slavery Missouri. Populism among the farmers was strong. *Frank is a native of Kansas. his book reveals how Kansas changed. -Kansas was once dominated by "country club Republicans" whom the farmers disliked. outside Republicans ousted the "club" by linking them to coastal elitists, i.e. media, educational elites, government bureaucrats. -the new Republicans pushed "culture war" issues: abortion, homosexuality, media & religion but not economic ones. they were founded with corporate $$. -the New Democrats (Clinton) also skipped economic issues, thus losing the farm and working class voters. they wanted to pursue corporate donations and moderate Republican voters. new Dems also funded with corporate $. -Kansas lost good paying factory jobs when corporations moved factories. only low wage meat packing plants opened in Kansas employing imported labor.

"Variation on an Original Theme?"…read more Recently, the city of Dublin commissioned 12 new Little Free Library book boxes in city parks. Not to be outdone, some creative residents in San Ramon have built their own Community Book box-- but even better! This "book box" is just like other community book boxes, but instead of books, there are balls and sticks and frisbees. It's on the honor system of course. So if you snag a ball, please leave another one. It doesn't have to be a new ball, but just not overly slobbery. Ditto for exchanging sticks or frisbees. Bravo to these creative, wonderful residents in our local community.
