Mobile Library Outreach Vehicle
Meet the Bettendorf Public Library's latest initiative: BettConnect. Our new outreach vehicle reaches beyond the library’s physical space, ensuring every community member, regardless of mobility or transportation challenges, has access to the library’s wealth of information and services.
Mobile Library Solution
BettConnect serves as more than a library on wheels; it's a dynamic extension of our mission to provide access to information and ideas for all. This mobile library allows our dedicated staff to set up pop-up library outreach services throughout the community and in public spaces, making library resources more accessible than ever. Residents of all ages can browse our diverse collection, sign up for a library card, and discover exciting programs. With free Wi-Fi, BettConnect keeps everyone connected in today's digital world.
Community Outreach Services
The Library stands as a recognized free community resource and a gateway to lifelong learning, offering innovative services, materials, and programs that support the pursuit of knowledge, the joy of reading, and social and cultural activities, and we welcome collaborative engagements with our community through library outreach. Community organizations can easily request a visit from BettConnect through our online Community Outreach Request form.
Your Roadmap to Lifelong Learning
Meet us on the road with BettConnect as we continue to inspire and empower our community through accessible information, innovative services, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
