Library staff will be on hand,
including current bookmobile
driver Daphne Grisdale and former
driver Lauren Henderson.

While similar bookmobile ser-
vices have disappeared elsewhere
(there is only one bookmobile in
Vancouver), the North Shore’s on-
ly bookmobile continues to be a
viable and popular service
patronized by many of the com-
munity’s less mobile residents,
especia'ly seniors.

“It’s a service that takes so
much more than books out to
people. For some of the patrons, I
could be the only outside person
they see all week,” says Grisdale.

Operating the bookmobile re-
quires an outgoing person who en-
joys the social nature of the job,
and all three West Vancouver
drivers have fit the bill.

The first was Lucille Fisher, who
remained with the job froin 1969

As school libraries improved,
the emphasis switched to people in
seniors’ residences — some of the
most avid and prolific readers in
the community.

Lauren Henderson took over
from Fisher and drove the
bookmobile until the birth of her
first child last spring. She’s since
switched to working in the
children’s department, handing the
keys over to Grisdale.
