The YouthMobile is coming to the park! Movement and play are essential building blocks in fostering literacy and a love of reading. In partnership with the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, we bring stories and song to our City’s beloved parks. Join us for a high-energy storytime in our beautiful outdoors!

The YouthMobile offers a diverse selection of children’s library materials available for check-out with an SFPL library card. From the City’s only kid-focused bookmobile, we circulate materials, create library cards and provide the public with information about library services and programs. Come aboard and see what we have!
