Presently there are four Little Libraries in Laundromats in Houston. The Little Libraries are charter libraries under the Little Free Library brand. 

The idea was born one day when I heard that the City of Milwaukee started an initiative to install little libraries inside of laundromats. I researched to see if there was anything like this in Houston and I only found one. I read about a woman in Kingwood, a suburb of Houston, who owns a laundromat and installed a Little Free Library there.  I reached out to the Little Free Libraries organization to see if I could use their brand in my idea and they said I could.  That is when Little Libraries in Laundromats was born.  I am currently looking for more laundromat partners.

 These are the four laundromats (or washaterias, as we say here in Houston, TX)  who have partnered with me and are hosting either a box of books or a bookcase. 

Thank you to friends who donated books, money, helped build the bookcases, designed the boxes and have been so supportive of this initiative. 

Thank you to these partners!
