Booktrail

Every book starts at a library.

We follow what happens after.

Booktrail is a coalition of Little Free Libraries that follow every book through its journey: every reader, every move, every note added along the way.

How it works

Step 1

Donate

Drop off a book at any participating Little Free Library. The library logs it and prints a label.

Step 2

Sticker

Each book gets a unique QR code stuck inside the cover before it goes on the shelf.

Step 3

Follow the journey

Anyone who finds the book can scan it, leave a note, and add the next chapter to its story.

Following one book at a time.

Pick a library above to donate a book, or browse what’s already on the move.
