Our Mobile Services crew is on the move, and we have some updates to share with you.
You might notice some small changes to our Bookmobile schedule. Beginning in February, we’ve added some extra space between stops to allow our team to travel safely, set up easily, and spend more time helping you at each location. Our goal is simple: smoother and better service for everyone.
We also have exciting news about our eVan. Thanks to strong community support during the Library District’s Winter Giving Campaign, the eVan is getting the much-needed upgrades we were striving for. These improvements will make the space more comfortable and reliable for both staff and visitors.
While the eVan is being renovated over the next six weeks, service will continue as usual. During this time, you’ll see our smaller gray library van out on the road delivering library materials and services.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to our community. Your kindness made these upgrades possible and helps us bring library services beyond our buildings and into the community. We are deeply grateful for your support.
