A new outdoor free library now sits on Knickerbocker Avenue after creator, Francisco Ramirez, decided to give back to the neighborhood he has called home since 2001.
“I worry about the future of the community,” said Ramirez, who is a community organizer. “It is one of the most marginalized that I know.”
Outdoor libraries, where books are left for the public to exchange or borrow, are not entirely uncommon.
