Windham County Reads brings books to seniors and children

The Bennington Banner reports that "Windham County Reads has begun its 10th year of the Bookmobile, a bus retrofitted to be a portable library, that travels to child care centers, senior apartment complexes, [and low income housing complexes] to bring books to the people." The bus makes 70 stops and spends 15 to 30 minutes at each stop. At each stop "residents have [the] chance to borrow books in various genres and children [can] hear a story, see a puppet show and hear songs before they browse the shelves."
