We are often asked if we are aware of any other lending libraries with a similar scope to our own. The following list is an attempt to provide the information we do know, though we are sure there are more out there. Living Books Library has permission from each owner to share the information included below.
If you have a library (even if you lend “unofficially”) and would like to see your information included here, please send us an email at info@livingbookslibrary.com with “Living Library” in the subject line. We’d love to connect more families with great books!
