WHAT IS A BOOKMOBILE?

A bookmobile is a library on wheels that brings an ever-changing stock of books for adults and young people to your communities and schools on a two-week schedule. There are approximately 2,500 books on the bookmobile at all times. The bookmobile also includes a selection of children’s DVD movies.

Who may borrow books?
Any county resident with a current library card may borrow from the bookmobile.

How many books may I borrow?
There is a limit of 10 items. If you are not finished with your books in three weeks, books can easily be renewed for another three weeks if no one else is waiting for them.

How much does it cost?
There is no cost to borrow books with your Valentine Public Library card. The only charges are for lost or damaged books.

***Bob is our driver and bookmobile librarian. He pays special attention to what the patrons like to read and tries to keep all the favorites on board. If you have a special request, reach out and we will do our best to send it on the bus.

***The staff at the Valentine Public Library… Bob, Carrie, Nichole, and Reaghan are available to help you anytime you need assistance. Give us a call at 402-376-3160.
