[UA] Tied-Down Characters

No, not like that. Yet.

In the campaign I'm about to start up features a bibliomancer, an
urbanomancer and a mundane (who'll probably be an adept eventually).
The campaign is set in beautiful Jersey City, and most of the action
will stay there.

However, New Jersey is so diverse that the characters will want (or
need) to get out and about eventually. With a bookworm and a rat in
the group, this looks like it will be a problem. The bookworm is tied
to his Library (granted, he can always go with the "travelling
library" option), and the rat, well, as soon as he leaves Jersey City
he's for all intents and purposes a dead battery.

Can anyone offer suggestions as to how I can get these two (the
urbanomancer moreso) out of the city and still have them retain their
'usefulness'?

words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways
to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary."
