Day and evenfng home games ; New Report 1 On Bookmobiles Is Issued ! “Bookmobile Service in North Carolina: A Profile” by John W. Jones is the title | of a newly published research report issued by the Division of State Library of the Department of Cultural Resources. Jones is the head of reference at the Forsyth County Public Library, where he has been employed since 1970. Having driven a book mobile for three years while he finished his graduate work, it is understandable that he chose this subject for his Master's thesis. It was presented to the Faculty of the School of Library Science, N.C. Central University, July, 1978. Bookmobile service continues to help reach library patrons that do not receive regular service because of location or lack : of transportation. The study shows that the average bookmobile spends 15 per cent of its time in transit, and that the length of time the bookmobile stays at a stop does not necessarily relate to the number of bodes circulated. It also , discovered that there was little difference in travel time and circulation bet ween urban and rural routes. The publication was funded with Library Ser vices and Construction Act (LSCA) Title I funds as part of the Continuing Education Program. It has been widely disseminated and it is hoped that the study will help libraries gain insight into the problems and rewards of this kind of library service. Copies are available upon request to the N.C. Department of Cultural Resources, Division of State Library, 109 E. Jones St., Raleigh, 27611; or by telephoning (919) 733-2570.
