I'm enjoying your bookmobile series, Ann. The bookmobile has been part of Franklin County, Virginia's library system for as long as I can remember. There was a time when it stopped in an elderly cousin's driveway in our little town because she was no longer able to get to the library. Until a few years ago, there was only one public library for the entire county of almost 720 square miles and 55,000+ people. There are now two libraries, but the bookmobile is still actively getting books, information and mobile programs to people in isolated areas. Our county also has four Little Free Libraries that get a lot of attention. https://littlefreelibrary.org/
