The Hudson Literacy Fund in collaboration with The Friends of Hudson Youth embarked on a project to populate Hudson, and the five towns that make up the Hudson City School District, with Little Free Libraries. LFLs are free-standing tiny buildings that house two shelves of books – one for children’s books and one for adults’ – that include works of fiction and non-fiction. LFLs invite residents to open the unlocked door and “take a book, leave a book.”
Thanks to Jack Beyer’s Technology Education Class at Hudson High School, which built four libraries for us as a spring semester project, we placed them in Hudson at the Chamber of Commerce on Front Street, the Presbyterian Church at Warren and Fourth streets, and at Oakdale Lake Park.
