Once per semester, students across Western Michigan University’s campus will be running away from one another as if they were flesh-eating, undead corpses.
At first glance, the little wooden boxes that have been popping in lawns across the city may look like giant mailboxes or birdhouses. However, they contain neither letters nor animals, but books. Known as Little Free Libraries, people are encouraged to take, and leave, books and magazines from the boxes’ shelves, with no strings attached.
