For your info especially for those who are isolated at the moment.
Online library services are provided free to all residents within Wales by your local authorities, this includes access to e books, magazines, audiobooks etc.
Just search within your local authorities website for online library services register and away you go, I have used it for a while it’s pretty good. |  |

It would be a mobile Coronavirus express.
All library books have plastic covers so the virus would sit there waiting for the elderly. Most of them have a house full of old books anyway. |  |

Indeed. Looking at footage on the news the building sites that are still open could be building "coronavirus towers" | | | |

All local authorities have had to close down libraries, they are almost all used as social hubs as much as anything, my Mother is almost 80 on her own since my dads death and isolated at the moment, the fact she can use FaceTime to speak to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren is a boon however she loves reading and audiobooks.
This facility is a fantastic opportunity to download magazines, books and audiobooks the local authorities should be congratulated.
As has been pointed out the mobile van would no doubt provide an ideal virus spreader over a vast area to some of the most vulnerable people.
Not one of your best suggestions Dick. | |

Sorry to hear about your mother. I like many others on here no longer have one.
Cherish every day .
I was only saying not all the elderly have great internet access or skills with technology down here in West Wales.
Stay safe. | | | |

Thanks Dicky, sorry I was a bit short with you, it is a bit stressful living so far away and not being able to support her in the way she always supported us.
She is 80 next week, we are not going to be able to anything with her and the day after that is the first anniversary of my fathers death. They were together 60 years and now she finds herself in this mess. | |

No need to apologize Pace, it's just a tiny minority on here are very quick to have a pop and try in an infantile way to trip up the more regular posters and thread starters.
No doubt they wish they had it in them to be more rounded.....ah well it takes all sorts. [Post edited 24 Mar 2020 16:45]
