Mobile library

Our mobile library visits location across the county to bring our library service to you.

Our mobile library service offers thousands of books. You can either come on the vehicle to choose your own books or we can select books for you to collect when we visit. Just call 01609 533878 or email mobilelibrary@northyorks.gov.uk and let us know.

If you are not yet a library member, you can join onboard the mobile library when we visit.

If you need to return borrowed books and miss the mobile library visit, you can return them on our next visit or to any of our libraries.

You can also renew books and other items online and over the telephone. For more details, see our library services page. Charges apply to some items on the mobile library, find out more on our library charges page.
