The Mobile Library


I saw this link in the LA Times about a mobile library in Germany I think.  Very modern and stylish.
 

And this is what it looks like inside!


But my memories of traveling libraries look more like this - this says it's 1955 - just about when Alice and I would be pulling the wagon to the 76 station where the library came every other Friday in the summer time - the rest of the year it came to the school we attended.
 

We would each get our limit of 12 books - and by the time we went back two weeks later, we'd both read all 24 books and were anxious to get more!!  I'm pretty sure I read just about every book in that library!!

What fond memories - just isn't the same with a Kindle!!
