The Story of the GCPS Book Mobile From Idea to Reality: |
|
The GCPS Book Mobile made its debut in the summer of 2017. The Pow mobile library visited neighborhoods in the Meadowcreek cluster providing students the opportunity to read books they chose over the summer.
Fall 2017 kicked off the school year program. The Book Mobile was restocked with new popular books. Schools “book the bus” and students select 1 free book to add to their personal library at home.
The GCPS Explore Book Mobile hit the road in June 2018 in the Norcross cluster. Both book mobiles continue to visit low income neighborhoods in the summer allowing kids to check out books on a weekly basis.
The school year program has been a hit as well. The Pow and Explore buses have visited over 100 schools and given away over 40,000 books.
The phenomenal response to this literacy initiative has allowed us to continue in our mission to put books in students’ hands!
