Mobile Libraries In Britain, not everyone can go to a library. Some people live far away from towns and cities, other people find it awkward to go out because they have an illness or a disability. Thanks to mobile libraries, these people can still borrow books. Most libraries store books in buildings. Mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini-bus. The back of the mini-bus has shelves for the books, and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around. A driver takes the mini-bus to a certain place at a certain time, so people know when to expect it. They can then return their books and borrow some more.
