Do You Remember Door County Bookmobile Service?
Mobile library service began with the iconic Bookmobile vehicle in 1950 through 1989 then continued into the 1990's with mini vans.
The Egg Harbor Historical Society is collecting, cataloging and archiving; memories, artifacts and oral histories related to bookmobile service and experiences. With your help we will restore, preserve, curate and share the rich (and sometimes controversial) story of this Door County icon.

“We didn’t have an ice cream truck that went through town, but it was exciting when this truck pulled into the neighborhood!” |
It wasn't just a book resource, but a community meeting place that brought people together. |
It stopped at ‘the corner’ in West Jacksonport between the bar and the old store. We would sit on the steps of the old store the whole two hours it was there to be sure we saw everyone who came and went. |
Share your memories here. Thank You!
