“Little Free Library” – A Summer Tradition at West Meadow Beach

Once again this summer, The Little Free Library is at West Meadow Beach for all beachgoers, young and old alike, to enjoy books and a relaxing day outdoors. Emma Clark Library created the structure, made from recycled materials, and it will be maintained each week by different Library teen volunteers.

There’s no need for a library card or to return a book – this is a “take a book, leave a book” concept hosted by Emma Clark. Library staff and the public contributed books for the sole purpose of the Little Free Library (books are not owned by Emma Clark – don’t return your library books here!). The Little Free Library is located under the pavilion at the beach. There is no need to live in Three Village to share in this give and take project, as long as you are a visitor at West Meadow Beach.

The Town of Brookhaven and Nicole Pocchiare, Environmental Educator, have once again graciously given their consent to host the Little Free Library at the beach.

“Thank you, Emma Clark Library, for continuing your commitment to provide a Little Free Library to the beachgoers in our community,” said Councilwoman Valerie Cartright. “This Little Free Library has become an expected and appreciated summer tradition at West Meadow Beach that I look forward to continuing in years to come.”

The Little Free Library at West Meadow Beach is registered on www.littlefreelibrary.org and can be found on the site’s official map of all Little Free Libraries across the United States and worldwide.

The Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, located at 120 Main Street in Setauket and online at emmaclark.org, provides public library service to all residents of the Three Village Central School District.
