libraries, have been around since the 19<sup>th</sup> century, when they were horse-drawn wagons bringing books to rural communities. Government funding in the 1950s and 60s created a bookmobile surge, and popularity has risen and fallen since then, along
with the price of fuel and digital technology. Today’s bookmobiles carry out the same mission of those horse-drawn wagons: expanding access to library resources. But these bookmobiles are far from old-fashioned. Check out how libraries are adapting this hundred-year-old
concept to their community’s needs.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
