“It’s an extension of what we’ve been doing in the community,” said Executive Director Gary Wasdin in an interview with WOWT 6 News.
“We’re serving people where they are, meeting them at different events around town. So the bike let’s us bring those materials with us.”
The bike is in operation thanks to the Omaha Public Library Foundation and the Omaha Bike Club.
