Books on Wheels - Bringing the Library to You
The Kellogg-Hubbard Library is committed to providing library services to all patrons in our service area. We meet this goal through home delivery, service to child care providers, providing library services at community gatherings, and book exchanges.
Home Delivery
If you or someone you know is not able to get to the library because of a temporary or permanent disability, or transportation is a problem, call to find out about home delivery. We will do our best to arrange pickup and delivery, and we're happy to help choose books that you might enjoy reading.
Child Care Providers
Books on Wheels seeks to promote literacy through its service to child care providers. Volunteers choose and deliver books to area day cares, often leading story time and assisting children in choosing books. Through this service, we teach preliteracy skills and encourage an early love of reading as well as a love of the library.

Community Gatherings
Adamant Annex
Books on Wheels maintains a library annex at the Adamant Coop. This provides easy library access to residents of East Montpelier and Calais. Patrons may also call the library and request specific materials to be delivered to the Annex.
Worcester Community Lunch and Old Meeting House Lunch
Books on Wheels brings the library to the towns of East Montpelier and Worcester by providing a limited selection of books for check-out at their weekly, mid-day community meals. Full library services are provided with patrons checking out, returning, and requesting library materials at these locations.
Westview Meadows
Westview Meadows is an independent/assisted living facility in Montpelier. Volunteers check-out large print books to supplement their library collection every six weeks.
Book Exchanges
Books on Wheels maintains book exchanges at the following locations: The Red Hen Bakery in Middlesex, LBJ's in Worcester and The East Calais General Store. At these sites, patrons choose books and are encouraged to return them, pass them along to others, and/or add their own books to the exchange collection. Books at these sites are give-away books that do not need to come back to the library.
