EDITORS COMMENTS
Eva Sharp, a remarkable woman with a passion for literature, holds the first book ever borrowed from the newly launched Book Bus in Stockton. This photograph captures not only Eva's infectious smile but also her unwavering dedication to bringing books and knowledge to the community. In this snapshot from 4th August 1998, we see Jenny Rodway and Mayor Anne McCoy standing alongside Eva as they celebrate the arrival of this innovative mobile library. The Book Bus, an ingenious concept of its time, aimed to bridge gaps in access to books and reading materials by reaching out directly to neighborhoods across Stockton. Eva's presence in this image is particularly poignant as she represents the elderly population who often face challenges when it comes to accessing traditional libraries. With her enthusiasm and determination, Eva embodies the spirit of lifelong learning that knows no age limits. Ian McIntyre's expertly captured moment encapsulates both nostalgia for the 1990s era and admiration for those who strive tirelessly towards creating inclusive spaces for education. This print serves as a reminder that even small initiatives like a mobile library can have profound impacts on individuals' lives. As we reflect on this powerful image, let us be inspired by Eva Sharp's commitment and remember that knowledge truly has no boundaries.
