From KETC, LIVING ST. LOUIS Producer Patrick Murphy hops onboard the St. Louis County Library Bookmobile—a traveling library for area schools. The Bookmobile started in 1947 when there wasn't enough money to open library branches. At its prime, there were as many as 26 bookmobiles. Today, 10 units serve 125 schools and 100 senior centers throughout St. Louis.
Great video. This provides a great chronicle of bookmobile service. Rose Huling, Natick's Bookmobile.
