Library Outreach

CCPL’s Bookmobile and Outreach Services allow the library to reach Cecil County residents directly in the communities and neighborhoods where they live, work, and play. Whether attending an information fair, providing books to children in their neighborhoods, or delivering books to Homebound Seniors, CCPL’s Outreach team connects the community to critical library resources. Please review the services offered below and use the form to request Outreach visits from CCPL.

For questions, contact outreach@cecilcountylibrary.org.

The CCPL Bookmobile is your library on wheels, complete with internet access, a wheelchair lift, and friendly staff to help you choose your next great read, with no library card required! The Bookmobile visits neighborhoods, after school programs, early childhood partners, community agencies, and others on a set schedule. 

To express interest in regular Bookmobile visits for your community or organization, complete the outreach request form at the top of the page. Bookmobile stop openings fill quickly. If the schedule is currently full, your organization will be added to our waiting list. 

Check the Bookmobile Calendar to see when the Bookmobile will be in your neighborhood. The events listed are open to the public. Visits to private groups and agencies will not appear on this calendar. This schedule is subject to change due to weather, vehicle maintenance, and other unforeseen factors.    

CCPL staff are happy to attend community events that support the library’s mission to Champion Reading. Build Knowledge. Inspire Curiosity. Connect the Community. Priority is given to events that are free, open to the public, and reach underserved community members. Typical services include: 

• Information or activity tables at community events and festivals, with or without the Bookmobile 

• StoryTimes or hands-on educational activities at community or school events 

• Presentations, workshops, or information sessions for community partner agencies on library resources 

• Participation in town parades with the CCPL Bookmobile 

Use the form at the top of the page to request CCPL staff and/or the Bookmobile to attend a community event. Requests are reviewed on a first come, first served basis. Staff and vehicle availability are limited, and not all requests will be possible. 

CCPL offers delivery of library materials to qualifying seniors who are unable to visit the library independently. Each month, CCPL’s outreach team will drop off 3-5 items based on your preferences. Available materials include large print and regular print books, DVD’s, and audiobooks. No library card is required to register. To determine your eligibility and to sign up for home delivery, call (410) 996-1055 ext. 1111.  

Library tours are a great way to introduce your school or group to the wonderful resources available at their local branch. Library branch tours are available on a limited basis to schools and other public-serving organizations. Group library tours must be scheduled in advance and are subject to staffing and availability. To schedule a library tour, contact your local branch.
