Little libraries with a big purpose
- Mesa County Public Library Director Michelle Boisvenue-Fox hosts one of 22 registered Little Free Libraries in Grand Junction, including one on the Colorado Mesa University campus in front of Albers Hall.
- The stands offer free books with no operating hours or library cards, and Boisvenue-Fox curates hers with books from home and Friends of Mesa County Libraries sales.
- Library officials say the small exchanges complement public libraries by removing financial barriers and feeling less intimidating than a traditional library.
