FFOYA House's free library got a shout-out in an article about free libraries in Bowling Green.

From the article by Simone C. Payne at bgdailynews.com:

     Anyone can build a free library and put it on display in their front yard for access to the community. Toby Fatzinger and Amanda Crawford learned of the free library from traveling and decided to put one up outside the FFOYA House studio.
     “It’s another outreach effort to the community; we’re both avid

     “We do see people turn out from the jail, in the winter time, sometimes without coats and they’re sitting here waiting for rides or they’re up and down the street and they are able to grab a book and flip through it and hang out for a minute,” Fatzinger said. “They’re incredibly respectful.”
