St. Paul’s United Church of Christ of Sellerville officially opened its Little Garden Library with a ribbon cutting and dedication service on Aug. 21. The ‘take a book, share a book’ community library box is part of the national and international Little Free Library network.

“At St. Paul’s we strive to live out our call to serve the community. Literacy is a basic skill that not only increases the joy of learning and broadens knowledge for our children, but is fundamental in our ability to perform everyday tasks as we grow and mature,” said Rev. Trudy Irving. “The book sharing box has a basic concept: take a book ~ leave a book. We hope you will stop by soon and visit!”

Located in front of the church building, the Little Garden Library proudly is accessible by anyone of any age, at any time. The rotating stock of shared books includes everything from adult fiction and nonfiction, to children’s books and academic reading.
