4 – Chevy Chapters

This amazing 1949 Chevy is one of the most stylish mobile library’s I have ever seen! Best of all is the owner of this van is 91 and still drives around schools delivering new books to them! Good for him.

3 – Book Warfare

If it could fire kindles out of its canon this might well be the best mobile library ever! But I am more worried the books might fall out of it that firing out of it.
