Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Pat Harris, at the wheel, has been driving it for the past six years. It will be taken out of service at the end of the month and not be replaced. In 1964, the borough's two bookmobiles accounted for more than 25 percent of the library's total circulation. By 1975, total circulation of the two vehicles dwindled to just over 6 per cent.
