The Bookmobile has a fantastic selection of new, popular books. Children up to 18 years of age receive a free book and a healthy snack each time they visit the Bookmobile. Literacy specialists help children choose books they can read independently. A pre-k specialist is also on board to help parents find books for visitors under the age of 5.
Oswego Bookmobile also participates in community events, such as the Lions Club River’s Edge Craft Show on June 10, Oswego 4th of July parade, Oswego Federal Credit Union’s Movies in the Park on June 27 for Coco and August 22 for Moana, Oswego Farmers’ Markets On July 5, July 19, and August 9, and Harborfest Children’s Park on July 27 and 28.
Oswego Bookmobile brings its summer literacy program to neighborhoods in partnership with Oswego City School District, Oswego Public Library, Little Lukes, and SUNY Oswego. Oswego Bookmobile is able to offer its literacy program thanks to a group of dedicated volunteers and with funding from many grant giving organizations, local businesses, corporate donors, and donations from citizens who support literacy in our community.
