Kids are definitely curious about and ask about the lift, but they have never climbed on it in the 13 years we have had our bookmobile. Definitely curious if others have had a problem with kids trying to climb on theirs.

Oooh, love that idea, Steve! What shelves do you use in the back and do you just use an S hook to hang them?

We actually use ours as a display on our Sprinter which has worked well for us.

I really like the idea of letting the lift look like what it is. As Sara says below, it’s a good opportunity to talk about adaptive technologies and how we want to include people who have disabilities AND it’s more welcoming for people who may need to use the lift. Instead of seeing a display hiding the lift which will need to be taken down if they want to come on the bookmobile (and the awkwardness of asking and then waiting while the display comes down), they see a lift that’s ready to go!
