Vintage News showcased a selection of "fascinating photos of American Bookmobiles in the past," noting that librarian Mary Titcomb, who launched the first bookmobile in the U.S. at the turn of the 20th century, had observed: "Any account of this first Book Wagon work, the first in the United States would be incomplete without the statement that this method of rural library extension has been adopted in many states in the Union, and that new book wagons are being put in operation each year."
