The South Shore Public Libraries Bookmobile is off the road for maintenance from March 10 to March 14, 2026, but residents in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, can still access their library materials. While the vehicle itself is undergoing repairs, library staff are making deliveries to specific community locations throughout the week to ensure local readers do not miss out on their books.
The delivery plan includes stops in New Ross, Barss Corner, and New Germany on Tuesday. Staff will travel to Chester on Wednesday, Mahone Bay on Thursday, Mill Village and Port Mouton on Friday, and Caledonia on Saturday.
Residents who rely on the service can pick up their items or meet with staff at these locations, although they will not be allowed to go inside the vehicle to browse the collection. For help with book returns or hold arrangements during this time, patrons can call the Margaret Hennigar Public Library or visit the library website.
The mobile library service has been a fixture in the region since 1972, providing library access to residents across Lunenburg and Queens Counties. It acts as a full-service library on wheels for rural areas that are far from a physical branch.
