Burbage Mobile Library Visit

In October, I helped out on the Wiltshire Mobile Library as it did its local rounds in Burbage. The Library is greeted by bands of eager book lovers wherever it goes and brings good literature, conversation and companionship to our villages. These libraries are part of the often-unseen rural fabric of our county, quietly parking up in our villages, and bringing good books to those who can't travel frequently to the larger centres. Wiltshire has kept all of the mobile libraries on the road and all of our libraries open, for which I am very thankful.
