contents Books on Bikes Genay, Tina Program Descriptions Phenomenology Library Services School Libraries Outreach Programs Reading Programs Library Materials Summer Programs Access to Information Elementary Secondary Education This article describes the author's (an elementary school librarian) journey as she researched various bike bookmobile programs in the United States. Though the three programs had different target audiences, all the bike bookmobiles that she observed generated excitement and interest in reading. Public interest for each program was high. People were curious about all the programs. Librarians involved with these programs talked about the importance of funding and grants. The author's experience visiting with the three bike bookmobile programs inspired her to take what she learned from these programs and integrate this new knowledge into a bike bookmobile program for her school. She was able to get the program, Books on Bikes (BoB), started during the summer of 2014. Not only did this program positively impact the students at her school, it also affected the community. The author hopes to inspire others to create their own programs. The greatest reward is knowing that students have access to reading material and are on their way to becoming lifelong readers.
