Mobile Library
The Mobile Library has been on the road since 1967. That's 50 years of books and the love of reading delivered around the city to families, children, schools, and seniors.
The Mobile Library visits 33 city stops on a weekly basis and makes almost 200 school and preschool visits each year. We love to keep in touch with all of our regulars, young, old, and everyone in between. The bus carries 7000 items that are turned over regularly. We try to carry items such as, books, DVDs, audio stories and magazines that we know are popular.
If you see our steam-punk designed bus on the streets, call in for a look or even just a chat.
Please note: The Mobile Library does not operate on public holidays.
