Desert Water Agency’s Little Free Library opened on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2020 on National Book Lover’s Day. Stop by to pick up water-themed, non-fiction, children’s or gardening books.

When you’re finished, return it, pass it on to another book lover or keep it for your collection. The popular, local gardening guide, Lush & Efficient, will be stocked at the Little Free Library to help locals with landscaping projects. It's open seven days a week during daylight hours.

The Little Free Library is tucked directly outside our office front doors at 1200 S. Gene Autry Trail in Palm Springs.

A huge ‘Thank you’ for making this possible to former DWA board member and architect James Cioffi, and Palm Springs Welding Inc. for their pro bono work. Cioffi created the sleek mid-century design while PS Welding donated the labor and brought the design to life.

Little Free Libraries is a growing movement with 60,000 around the world in 80 countries — from Iceland to Tasmania to Pakistan. Most have their own unique design fitting to their community. Each year, nearly 10 million books are shared in Little Free Libraries.
