Indigenous Little Free Libraries across the country that serve residents on reservations and in communities serving Native American families. They are mainly located in places where the residents don’t own many books of their own so the ILFL stewards are always in need of our book donations to help replenish the Indigenous Little Free Libraries. This is a book drive for a new Indigenous Little Library for the families in the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians in Coos Bay, OR.
Please take a look at their wishlist below and send what you can. New and/or gently used copies of these titles are acceptable and if you have general books for kids and adults, please send those along as well.
If you are shipping books from home, the post office media rate is the least expensive way to ship books right now. Thanks so much for your help!
