Decatur Sprouting Little Free Libraries

You'll see them in front of Decatur City Hall, at Dancing Goats and Harmony Park.

You'll be seeing more Little Free Libraries in Decatur.

Linda Harris from city hall explains.

The Decatur Downtown Development Authority purchased two Little Free Libraries via the auction at the Book Festival and the Book Festival Board purchased one in honor of Alice Murray, past board chair.  We put one up in front of City Hall, one in Harmony Park, and the third in front of Dancing Goats.  The one in front of Dancing Goats is the one that is in honor of Alice.  They will have plaques on them soon.

The Book Festival auctioned off about a dozen of these miniature houses with peaked roofs. Decatur's first Little Free Library can be found on Wilton Drive.
