Mobile libraries

There are 2 mobile libraries: one based at Buxton (North) and one based at Long Eaton (South). We serve about 150 communities across the county where there's no library building. These places are visited once every 4 weeks.

Disabled access

Our mobile libraries have lifts if you use a wheelchair, walking aids, or have mobility issues.

If you have any questions about accessibility, contact us and we'll be very happy to help.

Service alterations and disruptions

There will be no service on the North mobile from Tuesday 23 December 2025 to Monday 5 January 2026 due to the Christmas holiday.

We regret that the South mobile library service is not operating at the moment. We're doing all we can to get it back on the road as soon as possible. If you're one of our South mobile users, we'll contact you as soon as we're up and running again. In the meantime, if you're unable to visit a library, you can contact our Home Library Service for a referral, email library.communityengagement@derbyshire.gov.uk.
