During this time Women's Clubs were encouraged to promote bookmobiles because they embraced their ideas and missions. After receiving so much support and promotion these traveling libraries increased in numbers all around the United States. In the state of New York from 1895 to 1898 the number of bookmobiles increased to 980. The United States Women Clubs became their primary advocate.<sup id="cite_ref-Cummings,_Jennifer_1966._pp._299_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Cummings,_Jennifer_1966._pp._299-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="20th_century">20th century</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bookmobile&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: 20th century"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg/220px-Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="128" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg/330px-Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg/440px-Blount-county-book-mobile-1943-tn1.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1048" data-file-height="611" /></a><figcaption>A "book mobile" serving children in <a href="/wiki/Blount_County,_Tennessee" title="Blount County, Tennessee">Blount County, Tennessee</a>, United States, in 1943</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile,_Athens,_Georgia,_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b0/Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg/220px-Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="177" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b0/Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg/330px-Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b0/Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg/440px-Photograph_of_the_Athens_Regional_Library_bookmobile%2C_Athens%2C_Georgia%2C_1948_September_-_DPLA_-_f14b48f318bf6b4dcc9bcd2df89372e0.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4158" data-file-height="3346" /></a><figcaption>Photograph of Mrs. Asbell, a housewife with an invalid husband, coming out to meet the Athens Regional Library bookmobile in Athens, Georgia, September 1948.</figcaption></figure> <p>The Women's Club movement in 1904, had the standard to be held accountable for the influx of bookmobiles in thirty out of fifty states. Because of the Texas Federation of Women's Clubs (TFWC), a new legislation to develop public libraries in Texas became possible after much advocating from TFWC for bookmobiles. This new legislation brought in library improvements and expansions that included establishing a system of traveling libraries in Texas.

However, during World War II, one traveling library found popularity in the city of London. Because of air raids and blackouts, patrons did not visit the Metropolitan Borough of Saint Pancras's physical libraries as much as before the war. To meet the needs of its citizens, the borough borrowed a traveling library van from Hastings and in 1941 created a "war-time library on wheels." (The Saint Pancras borough was abolished in 1965 and became part of the London Borough of Camden.) </p><p>The Saint Pancras traveling library consisted of a van mounted on a six-wheel chassis powered by a Ford engine. The traveling library could carry more than 2,000 books on open-access shelves that ran the length of the van. The books were arranged in Dewey order, and up to 20 patrons could fit into the van at one time to browse and check out materials. A staff enclosure was at the rear of the van, and the van was lighted with windows in the roof – each fitted with black-out curtains in case of a German bombing raid. The van could even be used at night, as it was fitted with electric roof lamps that could access electrical current from a nearby lamp-standard or civil defense post. The traveling library had a selection of fiction and non-fiction works; it even had a children's section with fairy tales and non-fiction books for kids. </p><p>The mayor of the borough christened the van with a speech, saying that "People without books are like houses without windows." Even after heavy night bombings by the Germans, readers visited the Saint Pancras Traveling Library in some of the worst bombed areas.<sup id="cite_ref-27" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-27"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="21st_century">21st century</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bookmobile&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: 21st century"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><span><video id="mwe_player_1" poster="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/220px--Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.jpg" controls="" preload="none" data-mw-tmh="" class="mw-file-element" width="220" height="124" data-durationhint="137" data-mwtitle="Bibliobús_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm" data-mwprovider="wikimediacommons" resource="/wiki/File:Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm"><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.480p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="480p.vp9.webm" data-width="854" data-height="480" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.720p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="720p.vp9.webm" data-width="1280" data-height="720" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.1080p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="1080p.vp9.webm" data-width="1920" data-height="1080" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"" data-width="1920" data-height="1080" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.144p.mjpeg.mov" type="video/quicktime" data-transcodekey="144p.mjpeg.mov" data-width="256" data-height="144" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.240p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="240p.vp9.webm" data-width="426" data-height="240" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.360p.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"" data-transcodekey="360p.webm" data-width="640" data-height="360" /><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/b/bd/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm/Bibliob%C3%BAs_Puigdon_es_posa_en_marxa.webm.360p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm; codecs="vp9, opus"" data-transcodekey="360p.vp9.webm" data-width="640" data-height="360" /></video></span><figcaption>2016 video of a "bibliobús" serving small towns in Catalonia</figcaption></figure> <p>Bookmobiles are still in use in the 21st century, operated by libraries, schools, activists, and other organizations.
