Little Free Library Application

Little Free Library Application

Thank you for your interest in installing a Little Free Library in your neighborhood. Little Free Libraries add vibrancy to our neighborhoods and parks and are a great way to encourage community engagement, literacy, and continued education.

You can apply for permission to install your Little Free Library using this form. Please note that it can take up to four weeks for your application to be reviewed by city staff. If your application is approved and your Little Free Library is located in a park, the city of Clearwater staff will be responsible for installing it.

All Little Free Libraries are required to be maintained by the organization donating the library and signing this agreement.

If you have any questions about this application or require assistance filling it out, please get in touch with the city of Clearwater’s Neighborhoods Coordinator at neighborhoods@myclearwater.com or by calling 727-562-4559.
