Free Bookmobile Storytime Returns to Boonville on October 27 at 1:30 p.m.

BOONVILLE, Mendocino County — October 23, 2026. Families in Anderson Valley have a free local activity coming up: Mendocino County Library’s Bookmobile Storytime is scheduled for Tuesday, October 27, from 1:30 to 2 p.m. at the Boonville Apple Building, 14400 Highway 128. The official library schedule confirms both the date and location, and lists admission as free.

What happens at storytime?

According to the library, the program invites children and caregivers to sing, rhyme, dance and read together while learning everyday activities associated with early literacy development. The program is described as welcoming all ages. It is not a ticketed event, and the public listing does not require families to purchase materials or register through a third-party platform.

Why does a bookmobile matter in Anderson Valley?

Boonville and surrounding Anderson Valley communities have residents living across a large rural area. Mobile library services bring literacy activities and library outreach closer to families who may otherwise have to travel substantial distances to a staffed branch. The Bookmobile is one way that county services reach residents outside the major cities of Mendocino County.

Weather can affect the schedule

The library specifically warns that the storytime is subject to cancellation because of weather or staff availability. Families should check the original event page or the county Bookmobile service shortly before departing. No reservation or ride arrangement is provided by California58.

Where is the event?

The scheduled site is 14400 Highway 128, Boonville, CA 95415. The bookmobile schedule identifies the location as the Apple Building, rather than a permanent standalone county library branch. Check the location before using a map: travelers should not assume that the event takes place at a school or in nearby Ukiah.

What else can families do?

Mendocino County Library also offers library cards, online reading resources and outreach programming. Read the event listing for updated locations and times, or explore its countywide library website for digital books and programs.
