Bookmobile & Library Express Van

Our Bookmobile is a full-service mobile branch of our library that offers scheduled stops around the community that are open to the public as well as visits to senior living facilities such as Greenleaf Apartments and McKenzie Falls. The Bookmobile is wheelchair accessible and welcomes patrons to come aboard to browse and check out books, large print books, magazines, audiobooks, CDs and DVDs. You can also apply for a library card and request to pick up your holds on the Bookmobile.

Our Library Express Van visits Heritage Woods, Meadowbrook Manor and Autumn Leaves Memory Care Center to provide residents with a variety of library materials and engaging programs such as book clubs, game days and more.

See our events calendar for a schedule of Bookmobile and Library Express Van stops.

Home Delivery Service

Our Home Delivery Service brings library materials and services directly to your door if you cannot physically come to the library for any reason. We provide this free service on a temporary or permanent basis, depending on your needs. Learn more…
