Operating since 1975, when our Mobile service used to serve six areas of the city over six days each week — before the opening of local libraries in Douglas (1976), Hollyhill (1980), Mayfield (1984) and Bishopstown (2006) — the Mobile Library now serves library users from two stop points, in Blackrock and Mahon, while we await the setting up of a permanent library in the Mahon peninsula.
Bookstock: 5,624 (2,924 for adults; 2,700 for children & teenagers)
Transport access: The no. 2 bus stops near the Pier on Blackrock Road. You can walk to Avenue de Rennes from the no. 2 bus stop near the CSO office on Skehard Road, or from the no. 2 bus terminus on Ringmahon Road.
