Introducing the OES "Little Library" Book Exchange

A Little Free Library is a “take a book, return a book” free book exchange. They come in many shapes and sizes, but the most common version is a small wooden box of books. Anyone may take a book or bring a book to share.
Little Free Library book exchanges have a unique, personal touch. There is an understanding that real people are sharing their favorite books with their community; Little Libraries have been called “mini-town squares.”

At Oakland, our Little Library was created by 4th grade students under the direction of Mr. Carroll (4th grade teacher) and Mrs. Sutton (4th grade parent). It is located in the courtyard area behind the library.  Students may bring a book that is appropriate for students in 4K through 4th grade and exchange it for a new book in the Little Library.  Happy Reading!
