mobileRTF01

The Mobile Library visits over 80 communities on the Island, including villages, rural crossroads, edge of town estates, and now some sheltered housing.

For further information, telephone 01983 203880 or e-mail libraries@iow.gov.uk

Services available from this Library:

  • Books
  • Large Print
  • Talking Books
  • DVDs / Videos
  • CDs
  • Information
  • Photocopying

This is your new Mobile Library, delivered in 2002. Although the “day job” is to deliver a library service to rural communities, we wanted vehicles flexible enough to be capable of a number of other uses including:
  • Computing access and learning
  • Displays
  • Presentations
