Berkmar Middle School seventh grade language arts teacher Janice Brown has always had a love for reading and works diligently to ignite that same passion for her students. After hosting a classroom library of her own for years, she sought another way to expose children to books.

Thanks to Brown and Berkmar Middle School, Lilburn’s residents now have another opportunity to keep reading. Brown helped create Berkmar Middle School’s little free library, making the school a part of the “world’s largest book-sharing movement,” which seeks to “build community, spark creativity, and inspire readers,” according to littlefreelibrary.org.
