Library on wheels

Mary Lemist Titcomb and America's first bookmobile
Sharlee Glenn
Book - 2018

Librarian Mary Lemist Titcomb worked at the Washington County Free Library in Maryland--only the second county library in the country. Concerned that not enough people had access to books due to the largely rural community, Titcomb began the first mobile library, which at her time was a horse-drawn book wagon. And by 1922, mobile libraries had popped up all over the nation.
