Cumbria County Council has three Mobile Libraries offering a wide range of services. The Mobile Library service is accessible to people of all ages including those who are unable to visit the library owing to illness, disability, frailty, immobility and to those providing full time care to others. There is the opportunity to browse through a good selection of stock and help and advice is always available.
Home delivery service is available to people who are unable to visit the library because of mobility problems or ill health and who have no-one to go to the library on their behalf. For further details on this service see Cumbria County Council's webpage Cumbria Libraries Access For All.
