Little Free diverse library

This library is dedicated to the voices of Black, Indigenous and other racialized writers. We hope that the books in this Little Free Diverse Library will be taken home and enjoyed, then returned to this library for others to borrow.

​We also encourage members of the community to add books by racialized authors. For more information on the KW Little Free Diverse Libraries project, visit www.kwlittlefreediverselibraries.com or @KWLittleFreeDiverseLibraries on Instagram or Facebook.
