Write a love letter to the Duluth Public Library

Write a love letter to the library

Share a few words of why you love to read by dropping a note in a box.

If you love the Duluth Public Library, here’s your chance to prove it. Dozens of Valentine’s boxes have been places in Duluth businesses and public spaces. Community members, ages 3-80, made the boxes.

They’re there for you drop a heartfelt message about what the library means to you. Some cards have prompts, but you’re welcome to share your own reflection.

These will be assembled into a banner, which will go to St. Paul and be displayed at the capitol during Duluth and St. Louis County Days. They want to show lawmakers and everyone who sees it just what the library means to the community.

Afterwards, it will return home and be displayed at the library.
