What is Books By Mail?
Books, audiobooks on CD, and DVDs delivered to patrons who cannot get to a library branch because of health, mobility, advanced age, permanent or temporary incapacity. Only qualifying residents of Trails Regional Library’s two-county service area are eligible for this free service.
