OUR FIRST THREE CHAPTERS

Heber City · Park City · Salt Lake City

Our launch goal: one founding library in each town. Confirmed locations will appear as they open.

HOW THE STORIES TRAVEL

Find it. Read it.
Keep it moving.

  1. Discover a book.

    Search the collection or ask the cauldron. Library books show the location where they’re available for free pickup.

    Try the cauldron ↗
  2. Visit its little library.

    Check the location and stop by. Take a book to enjoy. No purchase, donation, or book exchange is required.

    Explore the locations ↗
  3. Share the next chapter.

    When you can, pass along a book in good condition. Every shared story gives someone else a place to begin.

    Give books another life ↗

ROOTED IN UTAH. REACHING FURTHER.

When we keep
books alive,
we keep
possibility alive.

Our purpose includes small libraries and reading opportunities in Gaza and other underserved communities overseas, guided by trusted local people.

Utah is our launch. Overseas partnerships and projects are still being developed. We also encourage direct support for World Food Program USA’s hunger-relief work.
