Bibliobus – The Travelling Library in Vilnius
Bibliobus is a modern mobile library that brings books and cultural activity to Vilnius residents. Inspired by Scandinavian examples, the Central Library of Vilnius City Municipality created this project to reach communities farther from the library branches.
Turning a truck into a welcoming cultural space was an exciting challenge that required creative teamwork. The result is a cozy, home-like library on wheels where visitors can read, work, or join community events. Today, Bibliobus carries almost 3000 books and offers computerized workstations, comfortable seating areas, and even a lift for visitors with mobility needs.
Since April 2024, Bibliobus has been visiting five different neighborhoods each week, quickly becoming a familiar and beloved part of local life. Communities actively organize events, workshops, and book clubs. Bibliobus also participates in city festivals and various outings, reaching new readers and bringing cultural life to unexpected places.
