Dumpo

The mobile library

Hertfordshire mobile library 2010

Before any library we had “Dumpo” the mobile library to take root on Wednesdays.

It was manned solely by a driver/librarian and young girl, and patrolled the then rural areas.

It was surprisingly well-stocked and the librarian climbed my hill one wet night to bring me my requested book (A Farel Caper).  That’s personal service!
