The Northeast Georgia Regional Libraries’ plan to reach more people with its services is taking a major step forward with the launch of a new bookmobile.
The new Bookmobile houses an array of books, programming, and resources to make library resources more accessible for those who cannot access the physical locations. The aim is to remove the barriers that prevent people from accessing the library and its services.
The Bookmobile is a service of Northeast Georgia Regional Libraries and is available to all community members. Sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses and community leaders to support this service by helping the library reach more people.
Jenny Brooks, the newly appointed Bookmobile and Outreach Manager, said, “We’re passionate about fostering inclusivity and providing equitable access to the wealth of knowledge and experiences available through our libraries. The Bookmobile enables us to extend our reach and directly engage with those who might otherwise face challenges accessing our services.”
Upcoming bookmobile stops
There will be a series of grand opening celebrations this month.
The Bookmobile will make its first stop in Clarkesville on January 23 at 10 a.m. at the Clarkesville-Habersham County Library. On January 24, it will visit the Rabun County Library in Clayton at 10 a.m., and on January 25, the bookmobile will make its way to the Toccoa-Stephens County Library in Toccoa for another 10 a.m. grand opening celebration.
The bookmobile will travel to the Cleveland-White County Library on February 22 at 11:30 am.
Additionally, the bookmobile will make special Storytime stops in Cornelia and Helen on January 18 and 29, respectively.
The Bookmobile is part of the Northeast Georgia Regional Libraries’ commitment to reaching distant regions and breaking barriers to public library access.
