Good books are closer than you think
If you love to read good books, enjoy listening to CDs and watching DVDs but you are too far away from a static library, why not wait for the Mobile Library Service to come to a road near you?
There are six mobile libraries travelling to communities across the whole of Leicestershire, especially to rural areas, so you can take advantage of the many library books and materials available to you.
Managed by the Leicestershire Library Service, the mobile libraries visit communities every two weeks. To find out about the routes covered in Leicestershire and the times the mobile library runs, visit www.leics.gov.uk/mobilelibrary to plan your visit.
Find out more about the mobile library service by visiting your local library, call 0116 305 6988, email libraries@leics.gov.uk or visit www.leics.gov.uk/mobilelibrary.
Perhaps you are housebound and cannot visit a mobile? The Home Library Service is for people who may be too frail, have an illness or had an accident that affects your mobility. The service is subject to availability of volunteers in your specific area, please contact the Library Service on 0116 305 6988 for details.
The free home delivery service is run by registered library volunteers who visit the homes of housebound people of any age. Volunteers will visit you to discuss your choice of books or music before bringing them to you in the comfort of your own home. Friends or relatives can also collect books and other items on your behalf.
You can hire up to 24 books for free, or 12 CDs at any time for a small hire charge from a mobile or through the home library service.
For further information about the home library service, contact your local library on 0116 305 6988, email libraries@leics.gov.uk or visit www.leics.gov.uk/homelibraryservice
