Collective representations are ideas, concepts, categories and beliefs that are the product of a social collectivity. They are not the work of individuals but emerge from social life. Located at LCL's Downtown Newark location, we invite you to immerse yourself into this space.
Hop on the Bookmobile History Timeline!
April 10th is National Bookmobile day and we are celebrating 80 years of mobile library services at Licking County Library! Stop by the Collective to learn about LCL's seven different bookmobiles. Explore how mobile library services got started in the United States with President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal program sponsoring the "Book Women" pack horse librarians of Kentucky.
