Outreach Services


Library "Outreach Services" aim to bring the Library to the community, wherever community members are. This ensures equitable access to information, educational resources, and cultural activities for individuals who may face barriers to visiting a library or gathering resources. This can include, but is not limited to, the elderly, people with disabilities, rural residents, or economically disadvantaged groups. Connection and community can be found in all corners of Jefferson County and we hope to be present in every corner we can.

About the Outreach Coordinator

Hi, My name is Hannah Bowman and I have been the Outreach Coordinator at Jefferson County Public Library for 5 years now. I grew up in Hanover, Indiana and I graduated from Indiana University Southeast with a bachelor's degree in English & Literature in 2022. I love working with people and bringing the joy of literature to their doorsteps. I also drive and operate the JCPL Bookmobile and I do adult programming at both the Madison and Hanover branches of the library when I'm not doing homebound deliveries. In my spare time I love snuggling up with my pets and a good book, travelling with my husband and finding our new favorite restaurants. Community, books and literacy are really important to me, and I can't wait to bring all of that to you!
