Readers can pick up free banned books from Black authors through the Little Free(dom) Library initiative

Readers can find free books across the city this month through the Little Free(dom) Library, an initiative promoting banned titles from Black authors. Throughout February, 13 sites in Philadelphia will give away 1,500 books that have been banned by school districts across the country. Similar to a Little Free Library, readers can pick up nonfiction and fiction books for free and leave other titles in the provided book receptacles. The program is a collaboration for Black History Month between the Little Free Library nonprofit, Visit Philly and the Free Library of Philadelphia.
