Little Free Library Help

hey wayfarer fam!

Looking for any tips or suggestions on this one. I have a LFL nearby i am trying to get approved, but now it’s been caught twice by ML.

I just simplified the title in my most recent submission - the first included “Birdhouse Styled” in the title - figured it got flagged for being a bird house

I have a hunch that it is getting flagged as non-permanent. It is very much not going anywhere, thing is cemented down and has some flowers inside the pot below.

Any thoughts, comments or suggestions?

This looks like it is in front of someone’s house which makes it ineligible.

Here are the clarifications on these:

Little Free Libraries

Little Free Libraries (LFL) can be eligible for nomination, but their location is critical to whether they can be accepted. Little Free Libraries with safe access on sidewalks outside of apartment buildings or on municipal or communal property are eligible. Those on single-family private residential properties (SFPRP) are ineligible. [image] :+1:The LFL above is a good example of an eligible Waypoint. It is on public property and is well-maintained. It faces the sidewalk, does not block acces…

Private Residences, Farmland & K-12

Single-family private residential properties (SFPRP), farms, and K-12 (schools or facilities primarily focused for persons under 18 years of age) are ineligible. This includes the outer facing facade, fence of these locations, and property boundaries. Objects in or upon apartment blocks, gated communities, or their shared spaces may be eligible assuming they otherwise meet criteria and are intended to be accessed by a community, even if not everyone. Communal spaces have the potential to be eli…

awwww deng. didn’t realize that was a factor at play. I was going off of other LFLs, they tend to be on people’s private property around me. Maybe not directly in front of their home though

what parameters would/wouldn’t allow it to work? technically the strip of grass(or brick) between the street and the sidewalk belongs to the house… but maybe would work?

thanks for the input

• SFPRP
• Not Permanent. In a pot so easily moveable.
• Location in photo would be blocking drive according to Streetview.
• No books visible.
• No name or the usual “Take a book, Leave a book” instructions.

IMO: This is a slam dunk correct Rejection.

No, I am not an ambassador, and I don’t travel, either. Not sure who was there.

A LOT of LFL’s have been accepted incorrectly, and it isn’t clear why some that seem similar are actually eligible and others aren’t. Really glad you came here to ask!

I was at GO Tour on Saturday.
