Moultrie Promotes Literacy Through Little Free Libraries


The Rotary Club of Moultrie launched its “Little Free Library” initiative this summer and just recently placed two libraries in town - the first inside of Main Street Park and the second in front of City Hall. Each library is a book-sharing box where people of all ages can come to take a book or leave a book, and the focus is promoting literacy and encouraging more people to read.

The libraries are actually repurposed newspaper boxes donated by the local paper, the Moultrie Observer, and spruced up with fresh paint and graphics. They have been very popular with the community and have seen a lot of traffic in the first few weeks. Requests are in for more libraries across the town and county, so this is a project that will hopefully continue for quite a while.
