Boston Public Library’s Bibliocycle had a successful launch. This librarian-powered outreach program is offered in partnership with Boston Bikes, which is part of the City of Boston’s Transportation department. Look for the Bibliocycle at farmer’s markets, fairs, and other community events throughout the city. Features of the program include library card sign-up, book checkout, demonstrations of Boston Public Library’s digital resources, and help with reference questions.

Looks like Read/Write isn't the only library to do books-on-a-bike! RWL has the BiblioTreka, and the Boston Public Library has the Bibliocycle: "...Features of the program include library card sign-up, book checkout, demonstrations of Boston Public Library’s digital resources, and help with reference questions. “'This initiative gives the library the opportunity to expand our reach and to connect with communities throughout the city. Through efforts like the Bibliocycle, Boston Public Library team members can meet people where they already are, which is out and about in the neighborhoods,' said Katrina Morse, program organizer and generalist librarian at the Grove Hall Branch. 'Some of these residents may not otherwise visit a library location in their neighborhood, and that is who we would like to connect with the most.'" Check out the link for more.
