On sitting down to write an article for a local newsletter, I realized that we didn’t yet have a formal mission statement. It’s easy to tell people what we do when they are standing in the midst of free books on display, and in fact one of my favorite questions is: “How does this work?” (My favorite answer is: “You find something you like and take it home.”) It is a bit more challenging to describe the project when we aren’t on location but of course this is very important. Spreading awareness of the Free Bookmobile has made us many new friends and volunteers. In the interest of keeping this momentum building, I am proud to unveil our mission statement:
The Sonoma County Free Bookmobile promotes literacy and love of reading by giving away high quality books to persons throughout Sonoma County. On a mission of outreach, the Free Bookmobile especially seeks to serve children and senior citizens living in rural and low-income areas.
Whaddya think? Does it capture the magic? As always, feedback is welcome!
