Another useful branch of the Little Free Library system, this cute red box is located in front of…read morethe Learn to Read of St Johns County, not far from US-1. The box is fire engine red with a white roof on a wood post. There is a single door with a small plexiglass window secured by a latch. Inside, mostly hard covers today including a copy of Tom Clancy's Executive Orders. I was tempted but I've already enjoyed that one and none of the others took my fancy. The steward of charter 34818 is Carolyn Mudgette. The online caption for this library is "St Augustine Sunrise Rotary has long partnered with Learn to Read of St Johns County, Inc. at our annual fundraiser, The Rhythm & Ribs Festival. This year one of the projects we decided to take on was the installation of ten Little Free Libraries. We partnered with the Architectural and Building Career Academy at Pedro Menendez High School to build the libraries. It is only fitting that our first installation is at the Learn to Read office which is in an area of need." [Review 14596 overall, 95 of 2021, number 1212 in Florida.]

It is just off International Speedway Blvd and not far from the speedway itself. Dark green that almost blends into the background with a metal roof, it is near the mailbox. The door is secured with a twist lock and inside, a single shelf with a collection of paperbacks that were mostly fiction and some children's books. "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was a great read, maybe that goes with me today. This is charter number 82278 and the steward is "Early Learning Coalition Little Library". The online caption reads, "Publix Supermarkets sponsored and built this Little Free Library for our organization!

The single door is secured with a hook and eye catch. The red door has a clear panel and you can see inside that there isn't too much room. Still, a few options that were mostly religious books that make sense considering the location. Nothing that caught my eye today. Signage on the library indicates that it is charter number 13068 but it is not listed in the Little Free Library database map. [Review 349 of 2025 - 2001 in Florida - 23911 overall]

The gray box is on the wall with a single door secured by a twist catch. It was extremely full today with fiction books that were mostly paperbacks. I did not bother to check the spiral bound that was taking up too much room. Nothing caught my eye from the selection. This is charter number 96208 and the steward seems to be the apartment complex itself. [Review 15752 overall - 1335 in Florida - 1256 of 2021.]

It is red and white with a white roof and so it blends a bit into the background. If you were driving past, you might miss it. As I guessed based on the location, it is filled with nearly all children's and young adult books. Nothing that particularly caught my fancy today but I was definitely amused by the book I photographed for the review. This LFL is charter number 42844 and the steward is Carissa Clough. The online caption reads, "This Little Library is a project of B.R.I.D.G.E (Bringing Reading Into Diverse Groups Everywhere).
