Go scavenger hunting for little libraries in Chattanooga

We’re creating a fun game to help you search for your next book with the help of little libraries around the community.

If you’ve ever stumbled upon one of those little libraries around Chattanooga on a walk but didn’t have time to snag a book or had one you wanted to exchange — this scavenger hunt is for you.

With the help of our readers, we have located some of the community bookshelves around the area + are dropping some clues on how to find them. You might want to dog ear this for later.
