StoryWalk® Week 2024

In November 2024, Let’s Move in Libraries joined the Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services for the four annual week-long event celebrating the inspiring work of librarians who spearhead StoryWalk® programs – promoting literacy, reading, health, exercise, and movement in communities and neighborhoods across the United States and the world. The 2024 celebration was from November 10-16. See the submissions from StoryWalk Week 2023, StoryWalk Week 2022 and StoryWalk Week 2021.

In 2024, during the month of October we received 43 submissions for public librarians!

We invited submissions of all StoryWalk® programs and variations, including Story Strolls, Story Trails, PoetryWalks: Whatever you call it – if it involves reading materials posted along paths – we wanted to feature it!

This webpage contains all the submissions we received! We are so grateful to be able to share these stories.

We want to invite you to join us in this visual celebration of library StoryWalks from across the United States, and the world!

You can also see all submissions on the social media (Instagram and Facebook) of the Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services by using the #ABOSStoryWalkWeek24 hashtag.

Our library staff periodically swapped out the stories at both locations, giving our patrons a fun incentive to keep reading and revisiting the StoryWalks® throughout the summer!
