Inspired by the heroic efforts of real-life librarian Luis Soriano, award-winning picture book creators Monica Brown and John Parra introduce readers to the mobile library that journeys over mountains and through valleys to bring literacy and culture to rural Colombia, and to the children who wait for the BiblioBurro.

Mobile Library

Area organizations offer a number of mobile services for residents without Internet or transportation.

Northumberland Public Library runs a mobile library that visits local communities throughout the county. This service is available year-round.

The mobile library offers laptops for Internet access and catalog browsing. Patrons can check out a limited number of children’s DVDs and books. Jane Blue, library director, says, "Our Library on the Go provided by Northumberland Public Library offers delivery service to anyone who can’t make it to the library. This service can be provided short- or long-term and can be signed up for over the phone."  

Contact the library for more information at (804) 580-5051 or e-mail jblue@nplibraryva.org.

Northumberland Public Library offers a great mobile experience.

All packed up and ready to go! Pictured: The bookmobile parked across the river from Pittsburgh before departing on the first leg of the long drive to Alaska.

I have always loved seeing these little library boxes in neighbourhoods. One just opened up very close to us. I'm so excited! I have already dropped off some books. I LOVE this idea! **** Reposted from @littlefreelibrary It's Little Free Library Week at @abos.outreach! All week long we're celebrating how "big libraries" use "little libraries" to engage readers. We're sharing stories like this one from librarians at the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library in New York: “Our Little Free Library allows the public to take advantage of reading 24/7, with or without a library card. It gives us an opportunity to share the wealth with people from all backgrounds, adds to the beauty of our outdoor gardens, and puts us on the map with Little Free Libraries. It encourages people to come inside and experience the library as well!” ····· Click our bio link to get more stories of how public libraries use #LittleFreeLibrary book-sharing boxes to engage with their communities and reach new readers. 📚🥳 #sharebooks #littlelibrary #freelittlelibrary #littlefreelibraries #littlefreelibrariesofinstagram #littlefreelibraryweek #bookstagram #takeabookleaveabook #mobilelibrary (at Bobcaygeon, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/COd2qFfnldO/?igshid=1wytyrzjmk5aj

The church of St. Peter and St. Paul, Bleadon. According to Pevsner it was build in the 14th Century, the nave being shortened in the 19th Century. The bell tower contains five bells cast by the Bilbie family who also cast the bells for St Andrew’s, Banwell. #church #mobilelibrary #churcharchitecture #nikolauspevsner #bleadon #mobilelibrary #northsomerset (at Church of St Peter & St Paul, Bleadon)

#TheLibraryofUnreadBooks is an itinerant #library initiated by #HemanChong and #ReneeStaal. It is a living reference library with a collection of over 1000 titles, that traces the perimeters of #knowledge and reflects on notions of access, excess and the politics of #redistribution. Every single book you find in the collection was once #privateproperty and has been donated by an individual who did not read it when it was in their possession. Contributors to the growing #mobilelibrary receive a personalised library card and a lifetime membership. The Library of Unread Books brings to light these once-hidden-away titles to emphasize shared knowledge. The books, which are accessible to anyone who can visit the library sites, work to create a #commons. The #books of The Library of Unread Books are arranged randomly and in stacks, in a setting that encourages visitors to feel at home and re-arrange the books according to will and desire. Reminding us that a (private) library is both a means to an end and a research tool rather than an accessory, #UmbertoEco famously called for an “#antilibrary” made up of #unreadbooks. The novelist and scholar argued that read books are far less valuable than the #unread ones and that a library should contain as much of what one does not know as finance might allow. “You will accumulate more knowledge and more books as you grow older, and the growing number of unread books on the shelves will look at you menacingly.” In the case of this library of unread books, access to knowledge is not contingent on finance, and so the books are reverted back to a common resource pool. #Bookstagram #BooksOfInstagram #LibrariesOfInstagram #Libraries #Dubai (at Jameel Arts Centre) https://www.instagram.com/p/B46_802lSwi/?igshid=c1v8odz79yma

I thought it was going to be a quick read but I've struggled with this one... Maybe because it's really hard and raw "Mobile Library", by David Whitehouse Bobby is being bullied by everyone. Sunny will become a #cyborg to help him. Bobby meets Rosa and Val, and her mobile library... I feel this is not going to end well... 😢 #mobilelibrary #davidwhitehouse #readmore #leemás #readmorebooks #leemáslibros #madaboutbooks #locoporloslibros (at Chez Brixton) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz8kQa6h-m2/?igshid=rq2qjbmfvjtp

Home sweet home: the bookmobile parked outside our Spenard apartment at the end of the journey. Next steps are unloading, finding reliable parking, cleaning/fixing it up and the real big task, deciding what a bookmobile in Alaska is #bookmobile #buslife #schoolbus #bus #mobilelibrary #library #roadtrip https://www.instagram.com/p/B2M0KO3Asac/?igshid=165gq35mlacp1
