Bookmobiles
Pierce County Library System operates two bookmobiles. One is a family bookmobile and the other, our "Explorer" bookmobile, which is designed specifically for children.
Family Bookmobile
Two family bookmobiles visit 50 separate stops twice a month, mainly in remote and isolated areas of Pierce County.
The bookmobiles carry more than 3,000 books, audiobooks, movies and more. Bookmobile staff can also handle requests for any item available through the library system.
Further information on the bookmobile is available from the Community Outreach Services Department at the Processing and Administrative Center, 253-536-6500, ext. 150. Schedule information, with exact times and stop locations, is available at all Pierce County Library locations or online. Read more >>
Explorer Kids' Bookmobile
Explorer Bookmobile brings the total library experience to kids. As a true mobile library, Explorer Bookmobile is designed to encourage its young users to browse, read and talk about books. Kids can check out books, work on computers, hear a story, get personal help from a caring librarian while on board or simply sprawl and read. No other bookmobile in the U.S. has as much space. Stop times and locations vary according to the school year. Read more >>
