Hey there, litmobile friends! I hope you are having a safe and restful summer!

We know we'd love to continue the litmobile vision into this next school year, regardless of where or how we're learning together. But we just don't know what that will look like yet. For that reason, I have two asks:

1. If you are a parent or community member who would be interested in volunteering through litmobile OR has ideas about litmobile's futue, please reach out via messenger or send Sarah Schupanitz an email: [email protected]

2. What BOOKS are your kiddos excited about? What have they read recently that they love? What books are they looking forward to being released this fall? Your ideas just may help us stock up our libraries for the start of the year!

Happy June, litmobile fans!

We'd love for you to remember our pocket of joy during this crazy year by purchasing a litmobile tee or baseball hat! While we priced items as close to at-cost as possible, any extra funds will be used to help replenish classroom libraries in the fall and to support our June 28th get-together!

See our options here and order soon! Links will be open for the next week, so don't delay!

ATTENTION! ATTENTION! Attend litmobile for the LAST time!

With in-person learning beginning after spring break, March is the final month for the beloved litmobile as we know it. NEVER FEAR! We are brainstorming and working out how to continue the litmobile in a post-distance learning and post-pandemic world -- especially because we don't have a librarian! So you're not done with us just yet. 🤓

That being said... the weather is looking great and we still have plenty of books that we'd love to check out to students and families! If you've attended every time or haven't attended yet, we'd LOVE to see you! Return books, check out books, let us know about book requests, or just book browse and enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful parks we're visiting.

Long story short, join us at the end of this week and comment to let us know if you're going to make it!
