Mobile libraries

A mobile library van parked on a gravel area overlooking a coastal landscape, with the sea, cliffs, and cloudy sky in the background. The van’s door is open, showing the entrance steps and part of the interior.

Our mobile libraries are on the road almost every day. The routes are tailored to meet the requirements of individual communities to ensure access where there is most need. Stops may be at primary schools, residential homes, community halls, at the centre of villages and even at or near private homes if appropriate.
