mobile library
Books on wheels
A mobile library is a vehicle, typically a van or bus, outfitted with bookshelves and functioning as a traveling branch of a public library system.
Mobile libraries bring books and library services to communities that lack convenient access to a permanent library building, such as rural areas, schools, or retirement homes.
In American English, the term bookmobile is more common.
