While one of the windows says "Free Library", this is actually one of the Tiny Libraries placed by 380 Rotary in partnership with the Little Free Library organization. This one was unveiled here in May of 2019, and a
photo on the 380 Rotary Club's Facebook page shows it when it was new. Credits are given to Dustin Henson with Rustic Customs Woodshop for creating the library and Nicole Canales and Jason Rainey for the artwork that has unfortunately all but faded away over the last few years. The window on the south side is almost a ghost, while the window opposite has fared a bit better, as has the garden on the front at the bottom.
The wooden library is white with light brown trim, standing upon an unimproved wooden post, and its pitched roof could use some attention, as it is beginning to separate. Other than the wear and tear noted, it's in pretty good condition, secured with a hook latch, and it does see considerable use. The 380 Rotary Club emblem and "Better Together" are on one side of the door, and on the other is:
