Hartford Public Library is always looking for different ways to serve its city and an important tool in its arsenal is the Library on Wheels.

The Library on Wheels will be making multiple stops a week. It will continue its partnership with Foodshare, setting up at their meal distribution sites. But thanks to HPL staffers Liz Castle and Michelle McFarland’s hard work, the LOW will be distributing curated collections of books for local community partners.

“But I loved the library simply because it was a library. I love libraries. I like reading, but I love libraries. Being surrounded by books makes me feel safe, the way some people need trees or mountains around them to feel secure. Not me – nature’s not what I cling to. I cling to books.”
