The Mobile Library carries over 5,000 items for adults and children of all ages. The collection features current popular materials and includes books, magazines, videos, compact discs, and audiobooks. Patrons can also request specific titles or subjects from the main library collection to be delivered to their stop. (Twenty-four hours notice is required for this service.) Every two weeks, the Mobile Library visits 39 sites throughout the city.
