      Although this group is relatively small, I think there is an easy solution that libraries can take to reach this population. We can bring the library to them. I learned this from the Eau Claire public library which has a home-delivery system where patrons can checkout books and have them delivered to their homes, and picked up from their homes when they're ready to check in. In order for libraries to remain relevant, I think home-delivery services would have to be a main-stay program of most libraries. With this rising popularity of apps and services that deliver food and shopping items right to your door, home-delivery may also appeal to younger audiences as well.
