The Readers To Leaders Foundation is excited to announce a new phase of our outreach, the RTL Mobile Library! We acquired a vehicle to allow us to take books on the road and serve even more children in Grayson and Cooke counties.
We like to think of our RTL Mobile Library van as a bit of a hero… It started life as a First Responder, serving as an ambulance for the City of Austin and Travis County EMS. After many years of honorable service, it now has a more fun assignment as a community resource for children throughout Grayson and Cooke counties.
Here’s what it looked like during its service as an ambulance:
Below is what it looks like now. Contact us if you want to schedule for an event. There’s no charge!
Our mascot, Booker McRead
Booker McRead is an integral part of our brand for the RTL Mobile Library. We were very lucky to collaborate with talented Texoma-area artist L Williams. She brought to life our unlikely combination of a book and an ambulance in a way that truly captures the fun-loving spirit behind the RTL Mobile Library. Please support local artists anytime you have the chance.
