OUTREACH & BOOKMOBILE

What is Outreach Services?

It's taking the library into the community.  

​

We have two main goals for our Outreach:

  1. Serving our Patrons who cannot physically make it to the library

  2. Fostering early childhood literacy and development by visiting day cares and schools

Some of the services that outreach provides:

  • Patron book delivery

  • Regular visits to residential and community centers

  • Community enrichment through Story Times and informal learning for all ages

​​

If you would like Outreach Services please contact Rachel at rpiercefield@clarkbooks.org  or (859)744-5661 for more information.

Talking Books

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The Kentucky Talking Book Library (KTBL) provides free library service to people who cannot read traditional print because they have a visual, physical, or reading disability. Audio and Braille materials are sent to and from users by postage-free mail, or can be downloaded from the internet. A special Talking Book player is provided on loan. KTBL has been in operation since 1969 and is part of a national network of libraries administered by the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled, a branch of the Library of Congress.

​
