Bookmobile Collection

The Bookmobile carries a range of items, including:

• Books
• Books in Large Print
• Audiobooks on CD
• DVDs
• STEM Kits

Please Note:
The catalog status of "In" at the Bookmobile Branch does not necessarily mean that the item is on board the Bookmobile itself. The Bookmobile collection is a popular browsing collection which may vary depending on the demographic of the stops being served that day. 

Circulation Policies and Procedures

Items checked out on the Bookmobile may be kept for four weeks, or until the next return visit to the stop of original check out.

Items may be returned to the Bookmobile or any San Joaquin Valley Library System (SJVLS) Library.

Most items may be renewed twice. Renewals can be done in-person, by telephone at (559) 675-7871 or by accessing your account online via the ValleyCat (Online Catalog) Website or App [Apple | Google Play]
Note: The first renewal is automatic where as the second renewal requires some form of contact mentioned above.

No late fines are charged for any items returned; however, items are considered lost when they become four weeks overdue. The cost of the item and a processing fee are charged for lost and damaged items. 

Unresolved fees may result in the loss of library privileges and/or referral to a billing agency.

Library Cards

Madera County Library is part of the San Joaquin Valley Library System (SJVLS) therefore, a library card from any SJVLS associated library will work at the Bookmobile. You may apply for a card and establish a Personal Identification Number (PIN) in person at the Bookmobile. 

Please bring Valid State or Federally Issued Identification and Proof of Residence (any piece of mail with your name printed in the recipient field) to be able to receive a Library Card.

In addition to checking out books and other materials, you can access online resources and our digital library with your library card at any time. 

Requesting Materials

Patrons may place holds on materials from any other San Joaquin Valley Library System Library, excluding materials on the Bookmobile itself. The Bookmobile's collection, at least to begin with, is intended for patrons who actually visit a Bookmobile stop.

When these items become available, they will be delivered to your regular Bookmobile stop. Please confirm your Bookmobile stop by checking with the staff at your next visit to the Bookmobile or by calling (559) 675-7871.

You may reserve items not found on the Bookmobile and have them delivered to your designated stop by :

1. Making a request in person
2. Placing a hold through the Online Catalog  or ValleyCat App [Apple | Google Play]
3. Calling Madera County Library Headquarters at (559) 675-7871
