Mobile Library

Help us hit the road! Quincy Public Library is hoping to bring back the beloved bookmobile and restore a Quincy tradition with the new and improved Mobile Library initiative! The Mobile Library will feature shelves full of our most popular current materials, high-speed Internet capabilities, and other features enabling us to host classes and events of different sizes, inside and out! Our Mobile Library will provide all the same services you can find at our physical branch! Browse our shelves for books, music, audiobooks, movies, and more! You will be able to put items on hold, have them delivered, and pick them up the next time the Mobile Library comes to your area! At certain stops, we will offer storytimes, digital literacy classes, and other programs and events! The vehicle itself will be a mobile hotspot, so you can connect to our wifi anytime! This project will be supported with grant funding and private donations.

Why a Mobile Library?

The Mobile Library will help QPL create community, bridge technology gaps, reinforce education, and create connections for the people of Quincy. QPL’s Mobile Library will:

• provide library patrons who may not be able to access the same free educational resources and one-on-one services offered at our brick-and-mortar location.
• offer access to technology. The vehicle will be equipped with the Internet, laptops, and tablets to use on the road.
• offer access to the entire collection at QPL. Though the vehicle will be limited in space, it will have the capacity to bring any of our resources to patrons. Users will be able to request specific titles to be brought to the stops.
• foster literacy of all kinds for all ages.
• provide a place for neighborhoods and communities to gather.
• support culture and creativity through programs and events.
• develop lifelong literacy and engage families in reading.

Support QPL Mobile Library with a Donation!

Your donations will help us purchase the vehicle, along with materials and equipment to get the vehicle on the road! Additionally, donations will help us form a maintenance fund to help with ongoing repairs! With your help, we can expand access to invaluable library resources.
