It felt like the clearest way to show how mobile access extends the library’s reach beyond physical walls. Equity and access are central to that.

I enjoyed reading your post and completely agree with your interpretation of hyperlinked libraries. You captured the essence of what it means to link communities, not just digitally but through genuine human connection.

Yes, the right combo of teen librarian, administrative view of teen services, and an effective way to reach teens in the community is needed for successful teen services that serve teens.
