Carmel Mobile Services: "KENYA NATIONAL LIBRARY SERVICE (KNLS)
CAMEL MOBILE LIBRARY SERVICE IN KENYA
INTRODUCTION
The Camel Library Service is a library outreach program for people who are unable to use the static libraries in marginal areas in the country. The Kenya National Library Service launched it on October 14th 1996, and it is operational in Garissa town in North Eastern Province of the country. Following its successful implementation, the program was replicated in Wajir town on April 13th 1999. The Camel Library Service is meant to serve the Pastoralists in these areas which are geographically isolated because they experience difficulties in using directly the available library facilities at the static library branches."
