Youâve seen them in front yards across the Omaha metro area.
Thereâs one at Morning Star Lutheran Church near 84th Street and Broadmoor Drive.
And now thereâs a Little Free Library in an unused bay at Oak View Mall.
Itâs been there for a couple of months, and itâs being noticed, said Amber Bakken, the mallâs property manager.
âWe have received messages on Nextdoor (a neighborhood social networking website) and our social networks mentioning how people appreciate the library,â she said. âWe have been very excited about the communityâs response.â
Bakken said employees from a nearby jewelry repair shop often see people perusing the books in the library while they wait for their items to be fixed. Sheâs also seen people sitting in commons areas drinking coffee and reading a bestseller from the libraryâs shelves.
