I was departing the nearby Oak Valley Park North when I spotted this nearby community book box…read more It's hard to miss, painted in bright yellow with pink and blue and then white shutters on the front on a baby blue stand. Very cool, folks! Very cool. Inside, two stuffed shelves with mostly hardcovers and thrillers on the top and children's and young adult on the bottle. Lots of good stuff here and I was happy to add a couple of my own paperbacks to the collection as I'm trying to reduce my own home library just a litttle. This box is apparently not part of the Little Free Library system and doesn't need to be. It's perfectly fine by itself. Thanks! [Review 16030 overall - 217 in Texas - 1535 of 2021.]

This adorable Little Free Library stands in front of the Layland Museum of History. It's a brown…read morebox with white trim that makes it look like an actual library. Very cute. A single door secured by a magnetic catch, there is only one shelf inside and it's quite full. Mostly hardcovers today and nothing that caught my fancy. I did add two of the paperbacks from my home as I'm working towards reducing my library there. This is charter number 8733 (a low number!) and the steward is Christy Morton. The online caption reads, "With a grant from Andrew Carnegie, local residents worked to get a library built in Cleburne. The 1905 historic building housed the public library until 1978 when the city expanded and built a new library on West Henderson Street. The Layland Museum, which was located upstairs, was expanded to the lower floor and other collections began to be added. The Little Free Library pays tribute to the history of the Carnegie building and it's original purpose. Mollie Mims, local writer and Layland Mu [and then it's cut off.]" There is street parking.

Located in Alvarado's Carver Park, this red painted box is under the picnic pavilion and is easily…read moreaccessible. Hard to miss as it is painted a farm barn red with yellow trim and stands on a yellow post. It looks like there might once have been a plexiglass window but that's gone. The door is secured by a latch. As it's is here in the picnic area, it should be mostly okay from the elements. Three shelves inside, divided into Adult, Teen and Kids. Unfortunately, it's just a big jumble today. But free books are free books and that makes it A-OK. There is parking in the park and there are picnic tables nearby if you'd like to sit and read.

There is a small plaque on the box that reads, "Silver award project. Lily Dorris. Troop 2330. December 2020. Nicholas P. Sims Little Library." It also has the Girl Scouts logo. Inside the box, two shelves of books that now have four of my thrillers from my own library as I'm reducing my own library at home. None of the other books were interesting to me.

This large gray box is on a single wooden post in a residential neighborhood and is completely…read moreaccessible for all. (The pond area behind it is gated and is for residents only.) The box has a single door with a clear panel secured by a twist lock. The inside was stuffed with all sorts of interesting books including children's, reference and non-fiction. I was tempted by The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires but opted to leave it for the next patron. This is charter 128994 and there is no steward listed on the website. The caption reads, "Although the pond area is only for Mistletoe Hill Residents, the book box is located outside of the fence and is open for anyone to enjoy!"

Painted a mint green with a wooden roof and wooden door that has a single clear panel, the library is quite full. I was able to add a couple of paperbacks to the collection as I am reducing the size of my own home library. I also grabbed a book to read today, Alex Trebek's biography that is now back into circulation. This is charter number 61091 and the online caption reads, "I have been enamored with the idea of the Little Free Library ever since I saw one for the first time while jogging in Tyler, TX.
