Kerry mobile library service to visit just once a month after van fails NCT

Kerry’s rural readers will be reduced to getting books once a month — after one of the county’s mobile library vans failed its NCT.

The two book-laden vans visit 93 locations every fortnight from Ventry in the west to Lauragh in the south and Duagh in the north.

However, a notice said that the service in south and mid-Kerry was being reduced “due to mechanical failure” of one of the vans.
