Mobile Libraries bring the library service to you!
Whether you live in the countryside or on the fringe of a town, we operate from 11 libraries countywide, and visit over 1300 locations - nearly every parish in Devon.
To find out if a mobile library visits your community or nearby, please type your location here to find out when and how often your mobile library visits.
On your first visit to your mobile library the librarian will give you a route sheet showing the dates and times as a useful reminder.
You can choose from a range of books and spoken-word cassettes, and if you don't find what you want, your librarian will be pleased to help. Membership is free, and though we would like you to return books after 4 weeks so other people may borrow them, there are no overdue charges. Many of our vehicles have access for people with disabilities - please talk to the Mobile Librarian if you are experiencing any difficulties
You can also reserve books, videos, CDs or cassettes via your mobile library and we can answer your information enquiries using the resources of the main Central Reference Libraries.
If the mobile library fails to arrive on time, we won't leave you in the dark - where possible we notify a local contact for your stop who will pass on what the problem is and what happens next. The mobile may have been unavoidably delayed because of traffic or a vehicle breakdown.
Mobile libraries serve large areas. If you need more information about the mobile library serving you, contact the nearest library below or -
