Which country are you in. I'm in the UK and don't have to pay or travel to collect my books. They are sent to my local library and if I was someone unable to get out they would deliver them.
I think it's recognised here how good books are for people, especially as things like loneliness and disability can end up costing the Government/taxpayers a hell of a lot of money.
People don't reveal how bad they feel, and I must say, I've been shocked to hear about people I know who I've dropped books off to that I thought they would like, and been told later they'd nearly took the print off the books they enjoyed them so much. But they're unfortunately too proud to take advantage of the home delivery service.

Mine seems quite busy and not quiet - the Knit and natter club especially deafening
It's getting like a community centre with lots of clubs. I swear I heard someone say there is going to be a dancing club!
And my local GP surgery seems to be turning into a community centre with clubs and I noticed leaflets about loneliness and disability etc.
