Kirklees Information - August 2008

Kirklees council mobile library The Mobile Library Service operates across Kirklees and is based at Culture and Leisure Services in Huddersfield.

The main aim of the Mobile Service is to provide access to the facilities of the library service to people in Kirklees who, for whatever reason, have difficulties in getting to a branch library.

We have seven vans that rotate on a weekly basis to maximise the choice of material available to borrowers. There are approximately 3,500 items on each van which include adult novels and non-fiction books, large print books and talking books, childrens books suitable for babies through to teenagers. We will try to satisfy any specific requirements expressed by borrowers by accessing resources from our own stocks, or those of other libraries.

Each vehicle is staffed by one of our friendly and experienced driver/customer service officers.

We try to provide continuity in staffing but relief staff provide cover for sickness and holidays.

Sometimes due to unavoidable circumstances (e.g. vehicle breakdown) a halt may have to be cancelled and whenever possible cancellation notices will be posted as close to the halt as possible.
