Mobile Libraries of the World

Global Voice's Juliana Rincón Parra Mobile Libraries:

The mobile library has become a staple in many library systems, bringing books to those who cannot access the libraries themselves. However, in many places due to bad road conditions or lack of funding, the traditional system of rigging a bus or truck as a library is not possible. Thus, library carts, donkey libraries and motorcycle libraries have appeared as viable options to bring books to the communities.
