Little Free Library in the Twin Ports?

Someone asked on Twitter today if there are any Little Free Libraries in the Twin Ports. So, are there any around?

(While reading the blog, I noticed that Claire wrote an article for Publishers Weekly on the movement … maybe you might know?)

The Otis family has one on Allendale Avenue, between East Faribault and East Owatanna steets in Woodland.

The only local connection I knew before this thread to the Little Library movement was that Scott Boi, who lives in Duluth, is the brother of the founder of the movement. Glad to hear there are some local libraries. I've long considered putting one up myself.

Google Maps shows three in Duluth and one in Proctor.

Heh.  I just wandered by the one in Lakeside tonight and wondered what it was.  Good thing I read this.

Found the Morgan Park Little Free Library a few weeks ago on a walk with my time-share dog.

A new one popped up on Skyline just west of Chester Creek the other day. Very cute.

Publisher's Weekly: Building Momentum for Little Free Libraries

There are about a half dozen of them in the Twin Ports. My family and I have decided we are going to buy one and mount it in our front yard. I'm waiting for the ground to thaw first.
