Book Riot is teaming up with Harlequin.com to giveaway a Kindle Oasis to one lucky winner! Here’s a little more about Harlequin.com: Harlequin.com is the official Harlequin book site. Join us to see the newest novels, read exclusive free stories from Harlequin authors, connect with our community of romance book lovers, meet your favorite authors, buy romance books online and more! Bookmobiles in particular hold a distinctive charm. There’s something to be said for getting a visit from a mobile library squashed delightfully full with books. It’s like the magical wonder of an ice cream truck appearing around the block when you were a kid (only better). Mobile libraries have the opportunity to plant a garden of library resources directly into the community. The ALA highlights the value of bookmobiles, stating: “Bookmobiles and direct-delivery outreach services are, and continue to be an integral, vital part of libraries around the country. For over 100 years bookmobiles have served rural, urban, suburban and tribal areas, bringing access to information and life-long learning resources to all classes and communities.” In honor of library bookmobiles, check out these books about mobile libraries. Happy Library Outreach Day!
