Celebrate National Bookmobile Day

Tomorrow is National Bookmobile Day. How are you celebrating? We wanted to highlight some milestones and show appreciation for the hard work of hundreds of libraries that have kept OverDrive's Digital Bookmobile going for nearly four years.     Our library partners have served as a host to 580 events since the tour kicked off in August 2008. Over 6,500 library staff members have visited the Bookmobile since our first event. Over 125,000 visitors have been welcomed on the Digital Bookmobile since our first event. Library partners in 43 of the lower 48 states and Canadian provinces have hosted Digital Bookmobile events. (We are planning to add the remaining 5 states to the calendar this year.) Don, our Digital Bookmobile truck driver, has driven about 100,000 miles visiting libraries and schools across the county since the tour kicked off.   If you've had the Digital Bookmobile visit your library, please feel free to share your experience in the comments section.  To learn more about the Digital Bookmobile, see our upcoming events, and request the Digital Bookmobile make a stop at your library, visit www.digitalbookmobile.com.   Thanks to all the libraries that have hosted us over the years and helped us generate buzz by promoting in their community, inviting local media to the event and assisting visitors on the Digital Bookmobile.   Don and Kristijan strike a post at a recent Digital Bookmobile event.   We also send a big thanks to our Dynamic Duo on the road, Don Smith (Truck Driver) and Kristijan Medis (Digital Bookmobile Specialist), for all the hard work you do!   Don’t forget to tell us why your library loves eBooks for a chance to win a prize during National Library Week!   Cassie Renner is a Marketing Specialist at OverDrive.
