Little Free Library set up

The city of Ruston has a new Little Free Library. The library is located at Esma’s Alley on East Park Avenue. Sandy Stokley, librarian at Cedar Creek School, won the library box at a Louisiana Association of School Librarians meeting and donated it to the city. Readers can take a book and replace it with another. The library contains both children’s and adult books.
