Unplug, slow down, and rediscover the joy of handwritten letters at the Lincoln and Parkman Branches. Visit interactive mailbox stations to write an anonymous letter of encouragement, celebration, or comfort to a neighbor, or pick up a letter left by someone else when you need a lift.
How it works:
- Write a letter: Find all the materials you need to write an anonymous letter to a neighbor using our writing prompts, or create your own.
- Take a letter: If you match one of the categories in the letter binder and are looking for a bit of connection, take a letter meant for you.
Kids can participate as well with special library postcards! We encourage children to draw a picture, write a poem, or share a story about their favorite book or hobby to brighten someone's day.
The Letter Writing Stations are ready for use with stocked stationary and letter guidance.
