Alexandria Daily Town Talk, October 4, 1956 The bookmobile to be used in the Vernon Parish Library Demonstration which will open in November is now on display at the Western Louisiana Forestry Festival in Leesville. The bookmobile, a library on wheels, will provide all of the communities in the parish except Leesville with library service. Patrons in Leesville will be serviced by a branch located in the courthouse. The bookmobile will operate on a regular schedule and will be at each stop at a definite time on a scheduled day. The bookmobile holds approximately 1,200 books. These will be loaned free for a two-week period. All that is necessary to borrow a book is to sign a registration card.
